Tribulation.
Isaiah 2:5-4:1 speak of Israel's failure and judgment.
Isaiah 24:1-12, "This section of Isaiah's prophecies (24:1-7:13) is often called the Little Apocalypse because it looks beyond the immediate judgment of Israel's Gentile neighbors to the final judgments of the Tribulation period and the ushering in of the messianic kingdom. These chapters present universal judgment followed by universal blessings, The Lord moves in cataclysmic judgment upon the earth (erets), not simply on the "land" of Israel. In these verses "land" should read "earth." The severity of the Tribulation period is indicated by the statement that the Lord makes the earth empty, and ...waste. Turned it upside down is better read "distorted." The cities through war God empties the earth and leaves it a devastated and distorted wasteland. The cities of the earth are described as desolate and burned as a result of this universal destruction." (Notes from the King James Study Bible by Thomas nelson Publishers, Nashville 1988, page 1047)
Isaiah 24:13-23, "The universal nature of this eschatological judgment leaves the people of the earth as the shaking of an olive tree (i.e., empty and retaining only negligible remains). The reference to the uttermost part of the earth emphasizes the universal extent of this prophecy. This devastation will be so great that the foundations of the earth do shake from the aftershock. Thus, the earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard. God's judgment will rock the very stability of the planet, reminding the people of the earth that they have rebelled against Him. The host of the high ones (Satanic powers) and the Kings of the earth (earthly powers) will be gathered in the pit... shut up ... many days. After a period of time shall they be visited (lit., "punished"). Notice the obvious parallel to Revelation 20:1-3, where Satin is bound in the bottomless pit for a thousand years and then loosed for a "little season," only to be cast into the lake of fire." (Notes from the King James Study Bible by Thomas nelson Publishers, Nashville 1988, page 1048)
Isaiah 25:1-12, "Begins with a song of exaltation and praise to God for the Triumph of His judgment of the world. The survivors of the Great Tribulation lift their voices in praise to God for His protection. The cities of mankind have fallen into ruin and the nations of the earth have been brought low (i.e. humbled) before the mighty God who alone has been a refuge from the storm. The veil does not refer to the veil of the temple but to the covering of death that hangs over all nations. Yet God will swallow up death in victory (i.e. 1 Cor. 15:54) and the Lord God will wipe away tears (i.e. Rev. 7:17). This act of His grace will then bring in the millennial kingdom." (Notes from the King James Study Bible by Thomas nelson Publishers, Nashville 1988, page 1048)
Isaiah 33:1-12, "Isaiah's final Woe on Isreal and Judah looks beyond the coming Assyrian invasion to the ultimate devastation that will come on the land in the final days. Thee that spoils and was not spoiled is a reference to the Antichrist and his kingdom. The time of trouble refers to the Tribulation period. The invading army is likened to a horde of locusts that shall cover the land of Israel. He hath broken the covenant . . . he regarded no man is certainly reminiscent of Daniel 9:27, which refers to the Antichrist. Thus both prophet foresees a time when the one who has promised to defend Israel will turn again her during the Tribulation period." Notes from the King James Study Bible by Thomas nelson Publishers, Nashville 1988, page 1057)
Isaiah 34:1-10, "This section of Isaiah's prophecy (34:1-35:10) is again apocalyptic in nature. The object of God's wrath will be the nations, the earth, and the world. Here the prophet depicts the worldwide carnage of the Battle of Armageddon when God's indignation and fury are poured out on all nations (goyim, Gentiles). So great is this destruction that the mountains shall be melted and the host of Heaven shall be dissolved (i.e. "melt" or "vanish"). So severe is this devastation that the atmosphere heaven shall be reolled together as a scroll. This apocalyptic judgment will be so cataclysmic that it will affect the earth and its atmosphere, and it will usher in "new heavens and a new earth" (65:17). The day of the lord's vengeance refers to the Battle of Armageddon (cf. Rev. 16:16). This is the final devastation of the world that culminates at the end of the Tribulation period (cf. "day of the Lord": Joel 2:2; Zeph. 1:15; Zech. 14:1; Mal. 4:5; "time of trouble": Dan. 12:1; "time of Jacob's trouble": Jer. 30:7; "the wrath to come": 1 Thess 1:10; "wrath of the Lamb": Rev. 6:16,17). Isaiah 34:11-17. The desolation and depopulation of Idumea (Edom) is symbolic of God's judgment on the entire Gentile world. The depopulation of the world by God's judgment is emphasized by the words confusion (tohu) and emptiness (bohu) which are also used in Genesis 1:2 to describe the earth as empty and lifeless. Thus the great civilizations have been reduced to a habitation of dragons (tanim, "jackals" or "scavengers"). For cormorant read "pelican"; for bittern read "porcupine": for Satyr read "wild goat." The book of the Lord refers to God's inspired prophecies predicting that such a day will certainly come to pass" (Notes from the King James Study Bible by Thomas nelson Publishers, Nashville 1988, page 1059)
