Isaiah34:3

3. Their slain also shall be cast out , and their stink shall come up out of their carcases, and the mountains shall be melted with their blood .

Into the Fields, where they shall lie unburied, and be left for a prey to all ravenous Birds and Beasts: Whereby he implies, either the vast Numbers which shall be Slain, so as they could not have time or place to Bury them: Or the curse of God upon them, and the Peoples contempt and abhorrency of them.

About Ierusalem, where they are supposed to be gathered to Fight against Ierusalem, as the Assyrians now were, and as other Enemies afterward would be, Zech. 12. 2. & 14. 2.

Shall be filled with their Blood, which shall run down abundantly from the Mountains with great force, and dissolve and carry down part of the earth of the Mountains with it, as great showers of Rain frequently do.

Marginal references: Joel. 2. 20.
