This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





Before I will restore them, and return in my wonted favour to them, I will punish them for their ways which 1 have seen, which are ways of iniquity, and will plentifully punish them; (for so



double here signifies, not the double of what their sins deserve;) because by their idolatry, blood, and cruelty, and other sins, they have defiled the land which I own, and which I have given them; and have filled that country which I have chosen for and named



my inheritance with their



abominable things, that is, practices, or unclean beasts offered to their idols in sacrifices, or innocent persons slain by them.
