Commentaries:
Adam Clarke
Out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword - See on Revelation 1:16 (note). This appears to mean the word of the Gospel, by which his enemies are confounded, and his friends supported and comforted.
With a rod of iron - He shall execute the severest judgment on the opposers of his truth.
He treaded the winepress - As the grapes are trodden to express the juice, so his enemies shall be bruised and beaten, so that their life' s blood shall be poured out.
