God's Certain Judgment
Commentators like Albert Barnes and John Calvin highlight the prophet's use of the past tense ('he hath utterly destroyed them'). This isn't a historical report but a prophetic statement. The action is described as already completed to show the absolute certainty of God's future judgment against those who oppose Him. For believers, this is a firm promise that God's justice will prevail.
