Isaiah 24:15

“Wherefore glorify ye the Lord, in the fires, &c.] These are the words of the remnant, now triumphing and singing, calling upon others also to glorify the Lord in the fires of affliction and tribulation, in which they had lately been, and had themselves done: or, “in the valleys”f482; in low estates and conditions: or, “in holes”f483; dens and clefts of rocks, where they fled from their persecuting enemies; but neither of these versions suit the state of the true church, as it will be at this time. The word “Urim”, here used, which is one of the names of what was put into the breastplate of the high priest, signifies “lights”; which sense of the word the Vulgate Latin version retains,…”

“in the fires--VITRINGA translates, "in the caves." Could it mean the fires of affliction (Pe1 1:7)? They were exiles at the time. The fires only loose the carnal bonds off the soul, without injuring a hair, as in the case of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego. LOWTH reads, in the islands (Eze 26:18).

“Wherefore glorify ye the Lord - The prophet, in this verse, calls upon the people to join in the praise of Yahweh wherever they are scattered. In the previous verse he describes the scattered few who were left in the land, or who had escaped to the adjacent islands in the sea, as celebrating the praises of God where they were. In this verse he calls on all to join in this wherever they were scattered. In the fires - Margin, ‘Valleys.’ The Septuagint reads, Ἐν τοῖς νήσοις En tois nēsois - ‘In the islands.’ The Chaldee, ‘Therefore, when light shall come to the just, they shall glorify the Lord.’ Lowth supposes that the word: בארים bâ'uriym should have been באיים bâ'iyiym, ‘in the…”

“In distress - When you are in the furnace of affliction. In the isles - In remote countries, beyond the sea, which in scripture are commonly called isles. Isaiah 24:16”

“glorify: Job 35:9, Job 35:10; Hab 3:17, Hab 3:18; Zac 13:8, Zac 13:9; Act 16:25; Pe1 1:7, Pe1 3:15; Pe1 4:12-14; Rev 15:2-4 fires: or, valleys isles: Isa 11:11, Isa 11:12, Isa 41:5, Isa 42:4, Isa 42:10, Isa 49:1, Isa 51:5, Isa 60:9; Gen 10:4, Gen 10:5; Zep 2:11; Zac 10:9-12; Mal 1:11 Isaiah 24:16”
