John Trapp on Job 21:20

Verſe 20. His eyes ſhall ſee his deſtruction.] His ſlaughter, ſaith the Greek, his breaking to pieces, ſaith the Chaldee: this he ſhall ſee with his eyes, the deſtruction of his perſon, and ruine of his Family. The ſight of evil is a grief to ſee, as well as the feeling of it is a pain: and that's complete deſtruction which is not only felt but ſeen. Zedekiah firſt ſaw all his children ſlain, and then had his eyes put out. Mauric[illegible: 1 letter]us had the like woful ſight, and then was ſtewed in his own broth by the Traytor Ph[illegible: 2 letters]as.

And he ſhall drink of the wrath of the Almighty.] Heb. The ſcalding hot wrath, worſe than that Cup of boyling Lead turned down the throat of a certain drunken man, by the command of the Turkiſh Baſhaw. Jeruſalem drank wrath to drunkenneſs, and had none to guide her; as a drunken man had need to have, Iſa. 51.17. The Nations were to drink it to madneſs, Jer. 25.10. Babylons brats ſhall drink of the wine of God's wrath, Rev. 14.10. (Poyſon in wine works more furiouſly than in water) their irreparable ruine is ſet forth to the eye as it were, when Rev. 18.21. an Angel, a mighty Angel taketh a ſtone, a great stone, even a milſtone, which he caſteth and with impetuous force thruſteth into the bottom of the ſea, whence it cannot be buoyed up. Now what is a mighty Angel to the Almighty God, who hath his, Name Shaddai, from deſtroying, as ſome are of opinion?
