earth . . . quake before them—that is, the inhabitants of the earth quake with fear of them.
heavens . . . tremble—that is, the powers of heaven (Matthew 24:29); its illumining powers are disturbed by the locusts which intercept the sunlight with their dense flying swarms. These, however, are but the images of revolutions of states caused by such foes as were to invade Judea.
