| Hosea 10:8 | And the high places of the idol, the sin of Israel, shall be destroyed: the bur and the thistle shall grow up over their altars; and they shall say to the mountains: *Cover us; and to the hills: Fall upon us. Isaias 2:19.; Luke 23:30.; Apocalypse 6:16. | Us, as the Jews would do at the last siege, and sinners before the day of judgment, Luke 23:30., and Apocalypse 6:16. Too happy, if they could by a speedy death escape eternal torments! (Calmet) --- People shall be in the utmost consternation at the approach of the Assyrians. (Haydock) --- They will not think themselves secure enough in their caverns. |
