Habacuque 3:2-16 NVIPT

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Habakkuk 3:16

When I heard, what dreadful desolations God threatened against Israel, Habakkuk 1:5-11, for of those he now speaketh and meditateth, having finished his elegant description of God’s wonderful works of mercy toward Israel of old, and left them as a foundation of comfort and hope. My belly, or heart, or bowels, or inward parts, Proverbs 20:27, trembled; another effect and sign of surprising fears and astonishment. At the voice; at the mere report. Rottenness entered into my bones; a consumption... read more

CRITICAL NOTES.] Habakkuk 3:7.] Neighbouring nations tremble at his judgments. Saw] in vision. HOMILETICSTHE MEASURED INHERITANCE.—Habakkuk 3:6-7These words describe the effects of God’s approach.

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Habakkuk 3:8-11

CRITICAL NOTES.] Habakkuk 3:8.] Now judgment is executed.

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Habakkuk 3:16-19

CRITICAL NOTES.] Habakkuk 3:16. Trembled] The prophet describes his own feelings at the coming of Jehovah: first, fear and trembling; then, exulting joy (Habakkuk 3:18-19). “The alarm pervades his whole body, belly, and bones, i.e. the softer and firmer component parts of the body, lips, and feet; i.e. the upper and lower organs of the body.” Habakkuk 3:17.] The trouble of the day described.

Sermon Bible Commentary - Habakkuk 3:2

Habakkuk 3:2 I. The first part of the prayer is, that God would revive His work. (1) God's working is the great subject of man's study, that on which man depends, and that which conditions all man's work. (2) God waits on man's working. He initiates, and yet He waits on account of the sin and sloth and heedlessness of man, God's work seems to decline, and God seems to withdraw. It is here that the place for revival is found. (3) What a force there is in the expression when we get down to its... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Habakkuk 3:4

Habakkuk 3:4 I. In the realm of nature there are hidings of God's power. Though we might become acquainted with the whole created universe of God, we have not exhausted Him. We get lost in our thought of God, and discover afresh that the finite cannot know all the Infinite, and that we have, and must have, only glimpses of His ways and works. See all you can, and after every manifestation you will have to declare there was revelation, but there was the hiding of His power. II. In revelations of... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Habakkuk 3:16

Habakkuk 3:16 We know things which do tremble that they may rest. "I tremble that I may rest" say the magnet, the planet, the bird. So says the heart in its language, the soul in its sorrowings. I tremble that I may rest. "The text is not a melancholy and prophetic foreboding. It is a wise repression of a too vehement self-consciousness, the assurance that our labour is not guaranteed by our present exuberance, but by a wise and thoughtful fear. I. The principle of fear is excited by the sense... read more
