Jamieson, Fausset & Brown, on Mic 7:8

Mic 7:8 · Douay-Rheims
“Rejoice not, thou, my enemy, over me, because I am fallen: I shall arise, when I sit in darkness, the Lord is my light.”
On this verse:
“Rejoice not--at my fall. when I fall, I shall arise-- (Psa 37:24; Pro 24:16). when I sit in darkness, the Lord shall be a light--Israel reasons as her divine representative, Messiah, reasoned by faith in His hour of darkness and desertion (Isa 50:7-8, Isa 50:10). Israel addresses Babylon, her triumphant foe (or Edom), as a female; the type of her last and worst foes (Psa 137:7-8). "Mine enemy," in Hebrew, is feminine.”
