Bible Comments

They; the Babylonians, and their confederates. Shall recompense; as God's ministers of just vengeance, shall judge you worthy, and execute on you what you are worthy of, all that may make you desolate, a derision, and scorn. Shall bear the sins of your idols; the guilt of the sins you committed in worshipping of and relying upon idols; and you shall bar the punishment of idolaters, which by the law of God is death without mercy, Deuteronomy 13:6-10. Ye shall know that I am the Lord God; by what you suffer you shall know that I am justly displeased with your sins, am true to my threats, and have made good my word: Deuteronomy 8:19, If thou do at all forget the Lord thy God, and walk after other gods, and serve them, & c., ye shall surely perish.

Ezekiel 23:49
