Isaiah’s “Little Apocalypse”: Isaiah 24-27, Jeremiah 4:23-31; Isaiah 45:18
Isaiah 24:1-27:13 These 4 chapters give praise to God for His future victory over all enemies and the final deliverance of Israel in the Day of the Lord. The judgments in this chapter (Isaiah 24) look forward to the tribulation as described in Revelation 6.
Isaiah 24:18 windows from on high. In Noah’s day, God judged with a flood (Genesis 7:11). He will judge again from heaven, but not with a flood. Revelation 6:13, 14; 8:3-13; 16:1-21. foundations of the earth. Unparalleled earthquakes will mark the future visitation during and after the fulfillment of Daniel’s 70-week prophecy (see note on Isaiah 13:13; Matthew 24:7; Revelation 6:12, 14; 8:5; 11:19; 16:18).
Isaiah 24:21 the host of exalted ones … kings. In the climactic phase of the Day of the Lord, He will strike against rebelling forces, both angelic (Ephesians 6:12) and human.
Isaiah 24:22 shut up in the prison. The New Testament teaches more about the imprisonment of fallen angels before their final assignment to the lake of fire (2 Peter 2:4; Jude 6; Revelation 9:2, 3, 11; 11:7; 17:8; 20:1-10). It does the same regarding unbelieving humans (Luke 16:19–31; Revelation 20:11-15).
Isaiah 25:8 swallow up death. God will swallow up death, which itself functions as a swallower of human beings (Isaiah 5:14; Proverbs 1:12). Paul notes the fulfillment of this promise in the resurrection of Christ (1 Corinthians 15:54). wipe away tears. The Lord God will remove the sorrow associated with death (Isaiah 65:19). Revelation alludes to the tender action of this verse twice—once in Isaiah 7:17 to describe the bliss of the redeemed in heaven, and once in Isaiah 21:4 to describe ideal conditions in the New Jerusalem
Isaiah 26:3 perfect peace … trusts in You. A fixed disposition of trust in the Lord brings a peace that the wicked can never know (Isaiah 48:22; Isaiah 57:21). Such reliance precludes double-mindedness (James 1:6-8) and serving two masters (Matthew 6:24).
Isaiah 26:4 everlasting strength. The expression is “Rock of Ages,” a rocky cliff where the trusting one may find shelter from attackers (Isaiah 12:2).
