This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
v. 12. Ephraim compasseth Me about with lies, on account of the hypocrisy with which its members still tried to create the impression that they clung to the true God, and the house of Israel with deceit, this being their general practice and not an individual instance of a temporary transgression; but Judah yet ruleth with God and is faithful with the saints, rather, "and Judah still wanders unrestrained over against God, against the faithful Holy One," so that both kingdoms were guilty before the Lord.
