The context of <a href="/isaiah/24.htm">Isaiah 24</a> is often referred to as the "Isaiah Apocalypse," a section that deals with God's judgment on the whole world. This global perspective aligns with other prophetic scriptures, such as <a href="/daniel/7.htm">Daniel 7</a> and <a href="/revelation/6.htm">Revelation 6-19</a>, which also describe worldwide judgment. The phrase underscores the sovereignty of God over all creation and His authority to judge all peoples.<p><b>like a harvested olive tree</b><br>The imagery of a harvested olive tree suggests a scene of desolation and emptiness. In ancient Israel, olive trees were a significant agricultural resource, providing oil for food, lighting, and religious rituals. After the harvest, only a few olives would remain on the tree, symbolizing the remnant left after divine judgment. This imagery is consistent with the theme of a remnant found throughout the Bible, such as in <a href="/isaiah/10-20.htm">Isaiah 10:20-22</a> and <a href="/romans/11-5.htm">Romans 11:5</a>, where a faithful few are preserved by God.<p><b>like a gleaning after a grape harvest</b><br>Gleaning refers to the practice of collecting leftover crops after the main harvest, as described in <a href="/leviticus/19-9.htm">Leviticus 19:9-10</a>. This practice was part of the Mosaic Law, allowing the poor and foreigners to gather what remained. The comparison to gleaning after a grape harvest suggests that only a small portion of people or resources will remain after God's judgment. This imagery highlights the thoroughness of divine judgment while also pointing to God's provision and mercy, as seen in the story of Ruth, who gleaned in the fields of Boaz (Ruth 2).
