On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

No better are the greatest of kings when they set up in opposition to God; when God comes to contend with them by his judgments he can as easily disperse and dissolve them, and bring them to nothing, as the froth upon the water. They shall have no joy of their idols and of their worship of them. And miserable is the case of that people whose gods fail them when their kings do.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

Kings, though gods to us, are men to God, and shall die like men. And ( lastly ) what does all this desolation owe its rise to? What is the spring of this bloodshed?

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

(Ho 10:3, 15). foam--denoting short-lived existence and speedy dissolution. As the foam, though seeming to be eminent raised on the top of the water, yet has no solidity, such is the throne of Samaria. MAURER translates, "a chip" or broken branch that cannot resist the current.

Jamieson, Fausset & Brown· Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible, 1871reformed

Is cut off - Shortly will be cut off: this prophecy probably was delivered when Samaria was besieged.
