This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
The apostle had declared in the verses before, the certain judgment of apostates: Here he declare the Judge, the Lord; and the judgment, vengeance; Vengeance is mine saith the Lord: Where, by vengeance, is meant vindictive justice in punishing sinners. The apostle's arguments seems to lie thus:
"If God professes himself an avenger of all sin and injury done to his people, as he certainly doth, Deu_32:36. Much more will he show himself an avenger of so horrible an indignity offered to his Son and his Holy Spirit."
Learn hence, That the consideration of the righteous nature of God, and that inclosure he has made of vengeance, to himself under an irrevocable assurance of the unavoidable purpose for its execution, gives undubitable assurance of the unavoidable destruction of all wilful apostates.
