Isaiah 30:27
Douay-Rheims
Behold the name of the Lord cometh from afar, his wrath burneth, and is heavy to bear: his lips are filled with indignation, and his tongue as a devouring fire.
Jamieson, Fausset & Brown
name of . . . Lord--that is, Jehovah Himself (Psa 44:5; Psa 54:1); represented as a storm approaching and ready to burst over the Assyrians (Isa 30:30-31). burden . . . is heavy--literally, "grievousness is the flame," that is, the flame which darts from Him is grievous. Or else (as the Hebrew means an "uplifting") the uprising cloud is grievous [G. V. SMITH]; the gathering cloud gradually rising till it bursts.
