John Trapp on Isaiah 13:6

Ver. 6. Howl ye] For the evils that are coming upon you, as Jam. 5.1. we may well ſay the ſame to myſtical Babylon.

For the day of the Lord is at hand] And yet it came not till above two hundred years after. Think the ſame of the day of Judgement: and reckon that a thouſand years with God is but as one day.

It ſhall come as a deſtruction from the Almighty] Heb. Cleſhod Miſhaddai, an elegancy that cannot be Engliſhed. Sh[illegible: 1 letter]ddai (Gods name) ſignifieth a Conqueror, ſay ſome; a Deſtroyer, ſay others, which a Conqueror muſt needs be: Eundem victorem & vaſtatorem eſſe oportet. Here is threatened a devaſtation from the Devaſtatour.
