Matthew Poole and continuators on Psalms 55:15

15. Let death seize upon them , and let them go down quick into hell ; for wickedness is in their dwellings , and among them .

(i. e.) Him and all such false-hearted Wretches, that pretended Religion with wicked Design, and now have manifestly Apostatized both from the profession and Practise of it, and fallen into all manner of Wickedness. For such are the vilest of Men, and most obnoxious to the Curse of God.

Or, into the Grave, Cut them off by a sudden and violent Death, as thou didst those, Numb. 16. 32. But these Imprecations used by inspired Persons in extraordinary Cases, is no President for our imitation.

Or, where they Sojourn. They carry their Wickedness along with them, from place to place, and leave the Impressions and Effects of it, wheresoever they come.

Heb. In their inwards. Wickedness is deeply Rooted in their Hearts, and it breaks forth in all their Houses and Actions.

Marginal references: Numb. 16: 30. 33.; Or, the Grave.
