Study Note
The exhortation to give glory to God 'before he cause darkness, and before your feet stumble upon the dark mountains' presents repentance as a final window of opportunity before inevitable judgment falls. The 'dark mountains' evoke both the literal danger of nocturnal travel in ancient Judah and the metaphorical blindness of spiritual apostasy. The lament imagery of turning 'the shadow of death' and making the land 'gross darkness' draws on the cosmic-darkness motif used elsewhere for covenant judgment (Amos 5:18–20; Joel 2:2), presenting national catastrophe as cosmic disorder rooted in moral failure.
