(Show All Books | Show All Chapters)

This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





The wrath of the enemy, i.e. their rage against me, as it is expressed Isa_37:28,29; their insolent and furious reproaches against my name, as if I were unnatural and cruel to my people, or unable to deliver them. Compare Exo_32:12 Num_14:13 Deu_9:28 Jos_7:9. The fear hereof is ascribed to God after the manner of men.



Strangely, i.e. insolently and arrogantly, above what they used to do. Or,



make themselves strangers, i.e. either really not acknowledge, or pretend they did not know, that which I had publicly declared, and they either did or easily might have known, to wit, that this judgment was inflicted upon them by my hand for their sins.
