This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
He that sinneth against me, by the neglect or contempt of or rebellion against my commands,
wrongeth his own soul; is guilty of self-murder and of soul-murder.
They that hate me, i.e. who reject and disobey my counsels, and live wickedly, which in God’s account is a hating of him, as is here implied and elsewhere, as Exo_20:5 Deu_7:10 32:41.
Love death; not directly or intentionally, but by consequence, because they love those practices which they know will bring certain destruction upon them.
