Gill's Notes on the Bible
[There is] a generation whose teeth [are as] swords,.... As sharp as swords; like such the beasts of prey have; cruel, barbarous, and inhuman creatures; see Psalms 57:4;
and their jaw teeth as knives; exceeding sharp and biting:
to devour the poor from off the earth, and the needy from [among] men: by their tyranny, oppression, and cruelty, to deprive them of the little they have; and even to take away their lives from them, and utterly destroy them; of this disposition are all tyrants and persecutors: such were Rome Pagan, compared to a red dragon in the times of the ten Heathen persecutions; and such is Rome Papal, signified by a beast, like a leopard, bear, and lion; and which has been drunk with the blood of the saints.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Proverbs 30:14. The fourth, The greedy, cruel, and oppressive, and, especially, oppressive to the poor.
