Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 5. - God shall likewise destroy thee for ever. As thy "devouring words" have been the destruction of many, so shall God, in return, "destroy thee" (literally, pull thee down) "for ever" - destroy thee, i.e., with a complete and final destruction. He shall take thee away; rather, seize thee (Kay, Cheyne), and pluck thee out of thy dwelling-place; literally, out of thy tent (comp. Job 18:14; 1 Kings 12:16). And root thee out of the land of the living. Destroy thee, root and branch, as thou didst destroy the entire house of Ahimelech (1 Samuel 22:17-19).

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(5) Destroy.--Better, tear down, as if of a building.Take thee away.--Better, lay hold of thee. The Hebrew word is always used of taking a live coal from the hearth. Notice, however, that the exactly opposite is intended of our "pluck a brand from the burning." Here the idea is of pulling the house-fire to pieces, and so extinguishing domestic life.
