(Show All Books | Show All Chapters)

This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Lay thee even with the ground (ἐδαφιοῦσιν)

Only here in New Testament. Primarily, to beat level, like a threshing-floor or pavement. The Septuagint uses it in the sense of dashing down to the ground (Psalms 137:9, and elsewhere). So Rev., from the succeeding reference to the children, and in allusion to the Psalms.

Visitation

See on 1Pe 2:12.
