Bible Comments

See here the confirmation of God's word; and the fulfillment of Jeremiah's prophecy: and behold in it also, a full refutation of the false and lying prophets. And thus, Reader, depend upon it, will be the final accomplishment of all God's promises of salvation to the people of God, and everlasting destruction to all his enemies.
