Commentary

That thy foot may be dipped in the blood of thine enemies,.... This verse is in connection with Psa 68:21 , with Psa 68:23 being to be r ead in a parenthesis: the sense is, that the Messiah would so wound the head and hairy scalp of his people's enemies, and there should be such a large effusion of blood, that their feet should be dipped therein, Rev 14:20 ; See Gill on Psa 58:10 ; and the tongue of thy dogs in the same; who should lick it up, as the dogs licked the blood of Jezebel, Kg1 21:19 ; and so such a carnage will be made of antichrist and his followers, that the fowls of the heavens will be called upon to eat the flesh of kings, captains, and mighty ones, Rev 19:17 .
