Those who perpetrate violence (Hamas חָמָס)

Pride compasseth them about as a chain they are as great in their own esteem as if they were Aldermen of the New Jerusalem. They want no other ornament than their own pomposity, no jewel could sufficiently adorn them. They wear their own pride as a better ornament than a gold chain. Violence (hamas) covers them as a garment. In their boastful arrogance they array themselves. They wear the livery of the devil, and are fond of it. As soon as you see them, you perceive that room must be made for them for regardless of the feelings and rights of others. They intend to have their way and achieve their own ends. They brag and bully, bluster and browbeat as if they'd taken out a license to ride rough shot over all mankind. Spurgeon
