SEV Biblia, Chapter 32:25
Por fuera desolará la espada, y dentro de las cámaras el espanto; así al joven como a la doncella, al que mama como al hombre cano.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 25. The sword without , etc.] Either without the city, the sword of the Roman army besieging it, which destroyed all that came out or attempted to go in; or in the streets of the city, the sword of the seditious, which destroyed multitudes among themselves: and terror within ; within the city, on account of the sword of the Romans, and the close siege they made of it; and on account of the famine and pestilence which raged in it, and the cruelty of the seditious persons among themselves; all these filled the people with horror and terror in their houses; and even in their bedchambers, as the word signifies, they were not free from terror; yea, from the temple, and inward parts, and chambers of that, which may be referred to, terror came, that being in the hands of the seditious; they sallied out from thence, and ravaged the city, and filled all places with the dread of them; and many, no doubt, through fear died, as well as by the sword and other judgments; which it is threatened shall destroy both the young man and the virgin, the suckling [also] , with the man of gray hairs ; none of any age or sex were spared, even those unarmed; not the young man, for his strength and promising usefulness; nor the virgin for her beauty and comeliness; nor the suckling for its innocence and tenderness; nor the aged man through any reverence of his gray hairs, or on account of the infirmities of old age, but all would be destroyed; and never was such a carnage made at the siege of anyone city in the world before or since; no less than 1,100,000 persons perished in it, as Josephus relates f603 .
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 19-25 - The revolt of Israel was described in the foregoing verses, and her follow the resolves of Divine justice as to them. We deceive ourselves if we think that God will be mocked by a faithless people. Sin makes u hateful in the sight of the holy God. See what mischief sin does, an reckon those to be fools that mock at it.
