Summary Of Commentaries Associated With The Selected Verse
A Commentary, Critical, Practical, and Explanatory on the Old and New Testaments, by Robert Jamieson, A.R. Fausset and David Brown [1882] |
The person is again changed. The Messiah's conquests are described, though His work and God's are the same. As after a battle, whose field is strewn with corpses, the conqueror ascends the seat of empire, so shall He "judge," or "rule," among many nations, and subdue
the head--or (as used collectively for "many") "the heads," over many lands.
wound--literally, "smite," or "crush" (compare Psa 110:5). |
Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
He shall judge among the heathen - Among the "nations." That is, he shall set up a kingdom, or shall rule over the nations of the earth. He shall come to execute judgment and justice, and shall apportion to people what is due to them. See the notes at Isa 11:3-5.
He shall fill the places with the dead bodies - He shall make a great slaughter - indicative of conquest, and of the subjugation of the world to himself. It would be "as if" the bodies of the slain in battle strewed the ground, or filled the valleys of the earth.
He shall wound the heads - The same word is used here that occurs in the previous verse, and that is there rendered "shall strike." It is the language of "conquest," as if the world was to be subdued to himself by war.
Over many countries - Margin, "great." Over vast and extensive regions, carrying his conquests into distant lands. This will be fulfilled only when all the earth shall be subject to the reign of the Messiah. Co1 15:24-28. |
Explanatory Notes on the Whole Bible, by John Wesley [1754-65] |
Judge - Condemn and punish them. The places - Or, the place of battle. Dead bodies - Of his enemies. Heads - All those princes who oppose him. But this and the like passages are not to be understood grossly, but spiritually, according to the nature of Christ's kingdom. |
Adam Clarke Commentary on the Whole Bible - Published 1810-1826 |
He shall judge among the heathen - David shall greatly extend his dominion, and rule over the Idumeans, Moabites, Philistines, etc.
He shall fill - with the dead bodies - He shall fill pits - make heaps of slain; there shall be an immense slaughter among his enemies.
He shall wound the heads - He shall so bring down the power of all the neighboring kings, as to cause them to acknowledge him as their lord, and pay him tribute. |

24 Then [1534] cometh the end [5056], when [3752] he shall have delivered up [3860] the kingdom [932] to God [2316], even [2532] the Father [3962]; when [3752] he shall have put down [2673] all [3956] rule [746] and [2532] all [3956] authority [1849] and [2532] power [1411].

28 And [1161] when [3752] all things [3956] shall be subdued [5293] unto him [846], then [5119] shall [5293] the Son [5207] also [2532] himself [846] be subject [5293] unto him that put [5293] all things [3956] under [5293] him [846], that [2443] God [2316] may be [5600] all [3956] in [1722] all [3956].

4 But with righteousness [06664] shall he judge [08199] the poor [01800], and reprove [03198] with equity [04334] for the meek [06035] of the earth [0776]: and he shall smite [05221] the earth [0776] with the rod [07626] of his mouth [06310], and with the breath [07307] of his lips [08193] shall he slay [04191] the wicked [07563].
5 And righteousness [06664] shall be the girdle [0232] of his loins [04975], and faithfulness [0530] the girdle [0232] of his reins [02504].
