The editors of the New American Bible Revised Edition suggest that the eagle mentioned in this verse may refer to Tiglath-Pileser III of Assyria, who overran the land of Israel in 733 B.C. [14] Thomas Kelly Cheyne reads "great emotion" in the short clauses of this verse. [15]
"For they have sown the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind" is considered a proverb which states that works have rewards and actions have consequences, especially that people may face negative consequences for their bad actions.
