Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(42) Moab shall be destroyed . . .--What is predicted is not annihilation (see Jeremiah 48:47), but the loss of national independence. And the cause of this punishment is once more asserted. With Moab, as with other nations, it was her self-exalting pride that called for chastisement.Parallel Commentaries ...HebrewMoabמוֹאָ֖ב (mō·w·’āḇ)Noun - proper - feminine singularStrong's 4124: Moab -- a son of Lot,also his descendants and the territory where they settledwill be destroyedוְנִשְׁמַ֥ד (wə·niš·maḏ)Conjunctive waw | Verb - Nifal - Conjunctive perfect - third person masculine singularStrong's 8045: To be exterminated or destroyedas a nationמֵעָ֑ם (mê·‘ām)Preposition-m | Noun - masculine singularStrong's 5971: A people, a tribe, troops, attendants, a flockbecauseכִּ֥י (kî)ConjunctionStrong's 3588: A relative conjunctionhe vaunted himselfהִגְדִּֽיל׃ (hiḡ·dîl)Verb - Hifil - Perfect - third person masculine singularStrong's 1431: To grow up, become greatagainstעַל־ (‘al-)PrepositionStrong's 5921: Above, over, upon, againstthe LORD.יְהוָ֖ה (Yah·weh)Noun - proper - masculine singularStrong's 3068: LORD -- the proper name of the God of IsraelJump to PreviousArrogant Defied Destroyed End Exerted Longer Magnified Moab Nation
