Bible Comments

How is the faithful city Jerusalem, which in the reign of former kings was faithful to God; become a harlot Filled with idolatry, called whoredom in the Scriptures. It was full of judgment, &c. Judgment was truly and duly executed in all its courts, and righteousness, or justice, lodged, or had its seat in it; but now murderers Under that one gross kind, he comprehends all sorts of unrighteous men and practices.

Isaiah 1:21

21 How is the faithful city become an harlot! it was full of judgment; righteousness lodged in it; but now murderers.
