The Day of the Lord
1 ver. 15;Isa. 58:1;Hos. 5:8;Amos 3:6Blow a trumpet in See ch. 3:17Zion;
sound an alarm on See ch. 3:17my holy mountain!
Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble,
for See ch. 1:15the day of the Lord is coming; it is near,
2 Amos 5:18,20;Zeph. 1:15a day of darkness and gloom,
Amos 5:18,20;Zeph. 1:15a day of clouds and thick darkness!
Like blackness there is spread upon the mountains
ch. 1:6;[ver. 11, 25] a great and powerful people;
[ch. 1:2]their like has never been before,
nor will be again after them
through the years of all generations.
3 ch. 1:19,20Fire devours before them,
and behind them a flame burns.
The land is like Gen. 2:8,9;See Isa. 51:3the garden of Eden before them,
but Zech. 7:14behind them a desolate wilderness,
and nothing escapes them.
