Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerse 11. - When thy hand is lifted up, they will not see. The original is more graphic. It runs, "Lord, thy hand is lifted up, [but] they see not. They shall see to their shame thy jealousy for thy people; yea, fire shall devour thy adversaries" God's jealousy "burns like fire" (Psalm 79:9; Zephaniah 1:18) in the cause of his people.
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(11) They will not see . . .--Better, they did not see, or, they see not, so as to bring out the contrast with the clause that follows. When the "arm of Jehovah," the symbol of His power, was simply lifted up for the protection of His people, the evildoers closed their eyes and would not see it. A time will come when judgments shall fall on them, and so they shall be made to see.Shall be ashamed for their envy at the people.--Better, they shall see (and be ashamed) the jealousy (of God) for the people. They shall understand something of God's watchful and zealous care for those whom He loves. It shall be seen that it is as a consuming "fire" (Psalm 79:5) that shall devour His adversaries.
