Psalms 63:10

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

They shall fall by the sword,.... As Saul, his sons, and mighty men, did, 1Sa 31:4; or, "they shall make him pour out" ; that is, his blood, "by the hands" or "[means] of the sword"; meaning either some principal enemy, as Saul in particular, or everyone of his enemies; who should be thrust with the sword, their blood let out, and they slain: so antichrist, the enemy of David's son, will be put to death in this manner, Re 13:10;they shall be a portion for foxes; falling in desolate places where foxes run, and so become the food of them, and have no other burial.

The foxes hunt after dead carcasses, and will find them out where they are, in holes and ditches; as appears from the case of Aristomenes, related by Pausanias : so the followers of antichrist, their flesh will be eaten by the fowls of heaven, Re 19:17.
