This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Num_15:30 But the soul that doeth [ought] presumptuously, [whether he be] born in the land, or a stranger, the same reproacheth the LORD; and that soul shall be cut off from among his people.
Ver. 30. But the soul that doeth aught presumptuously.] When the heart at any time deliberates, saith a learned divine, {a} and yet that word is not sufficient to express it; but when the heart works according to its own proper inclination, and then wilfully disobeys the Lord in any commandment, certainly then it casts God away. And this is that "great transgression." {Psa_19:11}
The same reproacheth the Lord.] As if he wanted either wisdom to observe, or power to punish, such as take themselves to be out of the reach of his rod. See Eze_20:27.
