And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
Ver. 15. A sharp sword] The word, Ephesians 6:17; the rod wherewith he smiteth the earth, Isaiah 11:4; the breath of his mouth, whereby Antichrist shall be overthrown, as by force of arms, so also of arguments.
The nations] The paganish pa-pagans. See the book entitled Paganopapismus; wherein is proved that papism is flat paganism, and that the Papists do resemble the very pagans in above seven score individual things.
And he treadeth the winepress] At Armageddon, Revelation 16:16 .
