Why does it say "Ayin Til'ag l'Av"?
Malbim (Derech ha'Muskal): The eye of this philosopher, who mocks the Father of all creations - Hashem, who begets all.
Malbim (Derech ha'Pashut): The eye of this king, which mocked his father and rebelled against him, will be gouged out.
What is the meaning of "[v'Savuz] Likehas Em"?
Rashi: The folds that gather in his mother's face. Likehas is like "Yikehas Amim" (Bereishis 49:10) - a gathering of nations. The Yud is from the root, like "v'Ya'alas Chen" (5:19).
Malbim (Derech ha'Muskal): Physical substance, which was created from nothing, and via it Hashem begat the entire existence after the initial creation from nothing [is compared to a mother]. The Father begets via a mother. They say that everything happened via chance!
Malbim (Derech ha'Pashut): He disgraced his mother, who was ruling.
What is the meaning of "Yikru'ha"?
Rashi: It is an expression of Tenaker (puncturing 1 ) - "Nikras ha'Tzur" (Shemos 33:22). A raven, which is cruel to its children, will puncture it and not eat it or benefit from it. A Nesher 2 , which is merciful on its children, will eat it and benefit from it. A raven is cruel - "li'Vnei Orev Asher Yikra'u" (Tehilim 147:9). A Nesher is merciful - "Yisa'ehu Al Evraso" (Devarim 32:11).
Malbim (Derech ha'Muskal): His eye mocked and disgraced - Midah k'Neged Midah, it will be gouged out.
Tosfos (Chulin 63a DH Netz): People say that Nesher is an eagle. It is not; eagles have an Etzba Yeserah! R. D. T. Hofman (Vayikra 11:13, cited in Daf Al ha'Daf Chulin 61a) - Mendelzon says that our eagles do not have one. Our verse and Iyov (39:27-30) imply that Nesher eats Neveilos.
