Jer_2:21 Yet I had planted thee a noble vine, wholly a right seed: how then art thou turned into the degenerate plant of a strange vine unto me?

Wholly a right seed.] That should have yielded a right crop, but it proveth otherwise. Nec votis respondet avari agricolae.
How then art thou turned into the degenerate plant?] How is it that slips of sorek prove slips of Sodom? {Deu_32:32} See on Isa_5:4; Isa_5:7.
