10439. 'To consume them from upon the face of the earth' means that those belonging to the Church will be destroyed. This is clear from the meaning of 'consuming' as destroying, though when used in reference to Jehovah, who does not destroy anyone, it means being destroyed by their own evil, as above; and from the meaning of 'the earth' as the Church, dealt with in the places referred to in 9325, 10373.
