Isa 24:1-23.

The four chapters (the twenty-fourth through the twenty-seventh) form one continuous poetical prophecy: descriptive of the dispersion and successive calamities of the Jews
(Isa 24:1-12);
the preaching of the Gospel by the first Hebrew converts throughout the world
(Isa 24:13-16);
the judgments on the adversaries of the Church and its final triumph
(Isa 24:16-23);
thanksgiving for the overthrow of the apostate faction
(Isa 25:1-12),

(Isa 26:1-21);
judgment on leviathan and entire purgation of the Church
(Isa 27:1-13).
Having treated of the several nations in particular--Babylon, Philistia, Moab, Syria, Israel, Egypt, Edom, and Tyre (the miniature representative of all, as all kingdoms flocked into it)--he passes to the last times of the world at large and of Judah the representative and future head of the churches.
