Psalms 78:46 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 78:46

He gave also their increase unto the caterpillar
A kind of locust, and the same with the locust in the next clause; for we read but of the locust only in ( Exodus 10:13 )

and their labour unto the locust;
which devoured the increase of the field, all green grass and trees, all sorts of corn, wheat, barley and rye, and the increase of vineyards, and all fruit trees, on which much labour had been used to manure and cultivate; see ( Revelation 9:3 Revelation 9:4 ) this was the eighth plague.
