Ver. 19. And when he had destroyed seven nations] Who had "filled the land from one end to another with their uncleanness," Ezra 9:11; so that God was forced to sweep it with the besom of destruction; like as, before that, the face of the old world was grown so foul that God was fain to wash it with a flood.
