Isaiah 1:21 - The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann

Bible Comments

How is the faithful city, Jerusalem with its representative inhabitants, formerly excelling in faithfulness to Jehovah, become an harlot, given to spiritual adultery or idolatry! It was full of judgment, justice in agreement with the Law of God being practiced in the city; righteousness lodged in it, being at home there at one time; but now murderers, for violence, tyranny, oppression are transgressions of the Fifth Commandment.

Isaiah 1:21

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