Commentary— Tyndale Open Study Notes (plain English)
22:15 This verse again lists those who are not admitted to contrast with those admitted in 22:14 (see 21:8, 27; 22:11). These unrepentant sinners remain outside the city; it is another warning to those who do not repent that they will not be allowed to enter the city of God (22:14). • The reference to sinners as dogs was a familiar Jewish designation for rejected outsiders (see Matt 7:6; Phil 3:2; also 2 Sam 3:8; 2 Kgs 8:13); Jews used this term to refer to Gentiles (see Mark 7:26-28).
