Isaiah 26:20-21 The image is of bodies just lying all around, unburied, as a result of the gruesome carnage. It says in Ezekiel 39:12 that it will take a great deal of time—seven months—for all the bodies to be found and buried. Richard T.

2 Thessalonians 1:6-10 Like one of the Old Testament prophets, Paul does not hold back. He had a thorough understanding of the Old Testament due to all of the studying he had done throughout his life, and he distills it here in just a few verses. He speaks of the flaming fire, the everlasting destruction, and the glory of Christ's power, giving us an indication that we, too, as New Testament Christians, ought to understand what is coming in detail.
