Psalms 1:5

Psalms 1:5

John Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible · John Gill (1697–1771) · Public Domain

Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment,.... Neither in temporal judgment, when God comes forth in a way of wrath and sore displeasure; for who can stand before him when he is angry? what are chaff and stubble, thorns and briers, to consuming fire?

nor in the last and great day of judgment, so the Targum and Kimchi interpret the words; for that day will burn like an oven the wicked, who will be as stubble, and leave neither root nor branch, : when the great day of the Lamb's wrath is come, who will be able to stand?
