Commentaries:
Adam Clarke
Whosoever resisteth the power - ̔ , He who sets himself in order against this order of God; ͅ ͅ , and they who resist, ̔ , they who obstinately, and for no right reason, oppose the ruler, and strive to unsettle the constitution, and to bring about illegal changes,
Shall receive to themselves damnation - , condemnation; shall be condemned both by the spirit and letter of that constitution, which, under pretense of defending or improving, they are indirectly labouring to subvert.
