And the LORD of hosts shall stir up a scourge for him according to the slaughter of Midian at the rock of Oreb: and [as] his rod [was] upon the sea, so shall he lift it up after the manner of Egypt.
Ver. 26. And the Lord of hosts shall stir up a scourge for him.] Far worse than that rod. Isa 10:24 This scourge was that angel that slew so many Assyrians in a night, according to that "slaughter of Midian." Jdg 7:22 Psalms 83:9 ; Psa 83:11
At the rock of Oreb.] Where Oreb was slain, like as was Sennacherib after this, in his temple at Nineveh.
And as his rod was upon the sea.] As Moses by his rod or staff held over the Red Sea made way for Israel, but brought destruction on the Egyptians. Exo 14:26
