The foot shall tread it down, [even] the feet of the poor, [and] the steps of the needy.
Ver. 6. The foot shall tread it down.] He saith not the hand shall beat it down, but the foot shall spurn down this lofty city, even the feet of the poor and abject ones, as once Samson dealt by the Philistines, Jdg 15:8 and as men use to spurn base and peasantly fellows that stand in their way. God can, and sometimes doth, to show his power and wisdom, make desolation itself to scale a fort. Amo 5:10 Men thrust through, to rise up and set whole cities afire, Jer 37:10 bring to pass mighty things by base and abject means.
