Commentaries:
Adam Clarke
And the beast was taken, and - the false prophet - See the notes on Revelation 17:8, etc.
That worshipped his image - The beast has been represented as the Latin empire; the image of the beast, the popes of Rome; and the false prophet, the papal clergy.
Were cast alive into a lake of fire - Were discomfited when alive - in the zenith of their power, and destroyed with an utter destruction.
