Contextual Overview

10 Enter into the rocke, and hide thee in the dust, for feare of the Lord, and for the glory of his Maiestie. 11 The loftie lookes of man shalbe humbled, and the hautines of men shalbe bowed downe: and the Lord alone shalbe exalted in that day. 12 For the day of the Lord of hostes shall bee vpon euery one that is proud and loftie, and vpon euery one that is lifted vp, and he shalbe brought low; 13 And vpon all the Cedars of Lebanon, that are high and lifted vp; and vpon all the okes of Bashan, 14 And vpon all the high mountaines, and vpon all the hilles that are lifted vp, 15 And vpon euery high tower, and vpon euery fenced wall, 16 And vpon all the ships of Tarshish, and vpon all pleasant pictures. 17 And the loftinesse of man shall be bowed downe, and the hautinesse of men shalbe made low: and the Lord alone shalbe exalted in that day. 18 And the idoles hee shall vtterly abolish. 19 And they shall goe into the holes of the rocks, and into the caues of the earth for feare of the Lord, and for the glory of his Maiestie; when hee ariseth to shake terribly the earth.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And upon all the high mountains, and upon all the hills [that are] lifted up. By which may be meant either kingdoms and cities belonging to the Roman jurisdiction, or churches and monasteries, and such like religious houses, and the dissolution of them. See Revelation 16:20.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

And upon all the high mountains - Judea abounded in lofty mountains, which added much to the grandeur of its natural scenery. Lowth supposes that by mountains and hills are meant here, ‘kingdoms, republics, states, cities;’ but there are probably no parallel places where they have this meaning. The meaning is probably this: high mountains and hills would not only be objects of beauty or grandeur, but also places of defense, and protection. In the caverns and fastnesses of such hills, it would be easy for the people to find refuge when the land was invaded. The meaning of the prophet then is, that the day of God’s vengeance should be upon the places of refuge and strength; the strongly fortified places, or places of sure retreat in cases of invasion; compare the notes at Isaiah 2:19.

Hills that are lifted up - That is, high, elevated hills.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Isaiah 2:14. Isaiah 2:13.
