This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Thou wast so intent upon and delighted in thy lewd courses, thou never thoughtest what once thou wast, or what again thou mightest be.
In all thine abominations, both corporal and spiritual.
Thy whoredoms: this is the same thing charged thus on her, because she would not consider, or lay it to heart.
Thou hast not remembered; thou hast utterly forgotten; it is a form of speech that contains more than the words seem to have in them, she had forgotten herself and her God.
Thy youth; the misery and loathsomeness of thy birth, which is expressed very elegantly.
1. Naked, as contemptible as poverty could make her.
2. Nay, she was nakedness itself, as the word will bear, exposed to all the suffering that can befall such poor helpless wretches.
3. Bleeding to death in a most loathsome, defiled condition, that none would come near her: but, ungrateful, she forgot all.
