God shall likewise destroy thee for ever, he shall take thee away, and pluck thee out of thy dwelling place, and root thee out of the land of the living. Selah.
God shall likewise. Punishment is the necessary consequence of guilt (Ezekiel 16:43).
Destroy ( naatats (H5422 ); as buildings) ... take thee away (as burning coals; chaatah (H2846 )) ... pluck out of (dispossess of; naacach (H5255 )) thy dwelling ... root out (as trees: shaarash (H8327)). Such was Saul's doom, (1 Samuel 31:1-13.) The Septuagint and Vulgate translate, for "out of thy dwelling place," 'out of the tabernacle' (skeenoomatos). The Chaldaic Targum, 'He will cause thee to depart from inhabiting the tabernacle' or place of the Shechinah. The Hebrew, 'ohel (H168), usually means the tabernacle of the ark (Aben Ezra). Thus, the last Antichrist in the temple of God is prefigured by Saul; even as the priests of the sanctuary were profanely killed by Saul (2 Thessalonians 2:4; Daniel 11:44-45).
Joy of the righteous at God's manifestation in judgment upon the wicked.
