For in this mountain shall the hand of the LORD rest, and Moab shall be trodden down under him, even as straw is trodden down for the dunghill.
Ver. 10. For in this mountain.] In the Church. as Isa 25:6-7
Shall the hand of the Lord rest,] i.e., Settle for their safeguard.
And Moab shall be trodden down,] i.e., Contumax quisque et perversus hostis Dei et Ecclesiae. a Piscator thinketh Papists are here meant by these Moabites, who were nearly allied to God's Israel, but ardeliones, bitter and brutish enemies, skilful only to destroy. as Eze 21:31
As straw for the dunghill.] Or, As straw in Madmenah. Jer 48:2 God will make a hand of all his people's adversaries, as is here and in the following verses set forth by three several metaphors.
