And the ten horns which you saw upon the beast, these shall hate the harlot, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.
All Commentaries on Revelation 17:16 Go To Revelation 17

AD 735
hate: They will begin to hate with extreme abhorrence the glory of the world, which they now embrace with wanton love, when at the end they see, now that the Lamb is conqueror, that they themselves are to be condemned. It may also be otherwise understood, either that there are always contentious among the proud; or, that every one "who loves iniquity hates his own soul."
