Gill's Notes on the Bible
And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes,.... Or "eater" m; the locust or caterpillar, or any such devouring creature, that eats up the herbage, corn, and fruits of trees; every such creature is under the restraint of Providence; and by a nod, a rebuke, they are easily prevented doing the mischief they otherwise would; these are the Lord's great army, which he can send and call off as he pleases, Joel 1:4:
and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; as he has done, by eating all green things, as the locust, caterpillar, and canker worm do, grass, corn, and trees:
neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field; which some understand of the devourer or locust, that that should not cause the vine to be abortive, or cast its fruit before its time, or bereave it of it; but it seems best to interpret it of the vine itself not casting its fruit, as an untimely birth, by blighting and blasting winds:
saith the Lord of hosts; who holds the winds in his fists, and will not suffer them when he pleases, any more than the locusts, to hurt the trees of the earth, Revelation 7:1.
m ×××× "comedentem", Drusius, Cocceius; "eum qui comedit", Burkius.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
And I will rebuke the devourer - , the locust, caterpillar, or any like scourge of God. It might be, that when the rain watered the fields, the locust or caterpillar etc. might destroy the grain, so that the labors of man should perish; wherefore he adds, âI will rebuke the devourer. Neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time,â holding out a fair promise, but cut off by the frost-wind or the hail; the blossoms or the unripe fruit strewing the earth, as a token of Godâs displeasure.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Malachi 3:11. I will rebuke the devourer — The locusts, c., shall not come on your crops and those that are in the country I will disperse and destroy.
Neither shall your vine cast her fruit — Every blossom shall bear fruit, and every bunch of grapes come to maturity.
