9 Of sin, because they believe not on me;



Ver. 9. Of sin, because they believe not in me] Our Saviour points out the greatest of sins, unbelief; which was the first sin, and is still the root of all the rest, Heb_3:12. It is a sin against the gospel, and rejects the remedy, that bath of Christ’s blood, to the which even the princes of Sodom are invited, Isa_1:10. It gives God the lie, and subjects a man to the rigour, coaction, and curse of the law.
