he: i.e. the enemy. The Assyrian.



us. The prophet includes himself.



the judge. Or, the then ruler (compare 1Ki_22:24. Lam_3:30; Lam_4:20; Lam_5:8, Lam_5:12), who would thus be the type of the Messiah (Mat_27:30).



rod = sceptre. Hebrew shebet = the club (of defence), as in Mic_7:14; hence, of office; not matteh, the rod or staff (of support), as in Mic_6:9. See note on Psa_23:4.
