Habakkuk 2:16 - Forerunner Commentary

Habakkuk 2:16

14 For the earth will be filled
With the knowledge of the glory of the Lord,
As the waters cover the sea.

15 “Woe to him who gives drink to his neighbor,
¹Pressing him to your ^abottle,
Even to make him drunk,
That you may look on¹ his nakedness!

16 You are filled with shame instead of glory.
You also—drink!
And¹ be exposed as uncircumcised!
The cup of the Lord’s right hand will be turned against you,
And utter shame will be on your glory.

17 For the violence done to Lebanon will cover you,
And the plunder of beasts which made them afraid,
Because of men’s blood
And the violence of the land and the city,
And of all who dwell in it.

18 “What profit is the image, that its maker should carve it,
The molded image, a teacher of lies,
That the maker of its mold should trust in it,
To make mute idols?
