Verse 10
10. he shall roar like a lion—by awful judgments on their foes (Isaiah 31:4; Jeremiah 25:26-30; Joel 3:16), calling His dispersed "children" from the various lands of their dispersion.
shall tremble—shall flock in eager agitation of haste.
from the west— (Joel 3:16- :). Literally, "the sea." Probably the Mediterranean, including its "isles of the sea," and maritime coast. Thus as Hosea 11:11 specifies regions of Africa and Asia, so here Europe. Hosea 11:11- :, is parallel, referring to the very same regions. On "children," see Hosea 1:10.
