Notes, Explanatory and Practical, on the Old and New Testaments (1832-1869)

For the Lord God of hosts - Note, Isa 1:9. Shall make a consumption - The Hebrew of this verse might be rendered, ‘for its destruction is completed, and is determined on; the Lord Yahweh of hosts will execute it in the midst of the land.’ Our translation, however, expresses the force of the original. It means that the destruction was fixed in the mind or purpose of God, and would be certainly executed.
