Destruction is threatened both to Israel and Judah for their impiety and idolatry.Put the trumpet to your lips! This phrase is a call to action, a divine imperative. The trumpet, or "shofar" in Hebrew, was used in ancient Israel for various purposes, including calling people to worship, signaling the start of a battle, or warning of impending danger. The shofar's sound was a powerful symbol of God's presence and authority. In this context, it serves as a warning to the people of Israel about the imminent judgment due to their unfaithfulness. The urgency of the command reflects the seriousness of the situation, urging the prophet to alert the nation to the consequences of their actions. An eagle is over the house of the LORD because they have transgressed My covenant and rebelled against My law (1) trumpet is at once to be employed for the purpose. The rendering of both the Targum and Syriac (2) expresses the same idea, though under a different form; the former has, "Cry with thy throat, as if it were a trumpet;" and the latter, "Let thy mouth be as a trumpet." According to this view, the Prophet Hoses expresses here very briefly what Isaiah has done more fully in the words, "Cry aloud [Hebrew, 'with the throat'] spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and show my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins." (3) The LXX. here deviates considerably from the Maseoretic Hebrew text, translating εἰς κόλπον (תֵיקְך) αὐτῶν, ὡς γῆ, of the meaning of which Jerome acknowledges his ignorance, though he attempts to explain it. Cyril connects the words with the concluding part of the preceding chapter, thus: "This their setting at naught (of me) in the land of Egypt shall come into their own bosom. As the land, as the eagle against the house of the Lord;" while his explanation is as follows: "Since, though I preserved them and instructed them, and gave them victory over their enemies (for I strengthened them), they have impiously set me at naught, worshipping demons for gods, and have trusted to the land of the Egyptians, and have fancied that their help shall be sufficient for their prosperity, therefore their attempt shall return unto their own besom, and they shall find no good reward of their temerity; but they shall receive, as it were, into their bosom the deserved punishment. For he shall come, he shall come who shall lay them waste - the King of Assyria, with an innumerable multitude of warriors, and he shall come to them as the whole land and region and country, that one might think that the whole region of the Persians and Medes had wholly migrated and had come into Samaria. This is the meaning of the whole land (ὡς γῆ). He shall likewise come as an eagle into the house of the Lord." (He shall come) as an eagle against the house of the Lord.
