So will this worm gnaw them: to which is synonymous, Mar_9:44. How must the execution of the sentence of the just Judge terrify them!
And fiery indignation; when it must be by burning, or heat of fire; wrath of fire proceeding from an injured and wronged God, Eze_36:5 38:19 Zep_1:18 3:8. As in execution of just vengeance, which like fire devours and eateth them up, not putting an end to their being by consumption, but perpetual piercing, searching, torturing, and this for eternity.
Which shall devour the adversaries; these underhand adversaries, utenantiouv, who are the most bitter enemies of Christ and his church, because secret ones, and seem to be by profession otherwise, Mat_25:41 Mar_9:43,44 2Th_1:8,9.
