Psalms 59:13 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

Consume them in wrath, consume them, that they may not be: and let them know that God ruleth in Jacob unto the ends of the earth. Selah.

Consume them in wrath. Such was Saul's fate, and such that of the Jews who opposed David's antitype, Messiah. Such shall be the doom of Antichrist's followers in the last days.

And let them know that God ruleth in Jacob unto the ends of the earth. The Hebrew accents require the sense, 'let them know unto the ends of the earth that God ruleth in Jacob.' So David said in his conflict with Goliath (1 Samuel 17:4-6, end). So in the punishment of Antichrist's hosts the recognition of God's rule in Israel shall be forced on the world (Isaiah 66:15-18; Isaiah 66:23-24).
