They; the house of Israel. Be ashamed; repent, and show it by manifest tokens. Of all: it is not true repentance which is ashamed of some only, but not of all sins. The form,; the model of the temple. The fashion; the manner of the building, and fitting each part to other. The goings out there of, and the comings in thereof; all the alleys, gates, stairs, &c. The forms, which ought to be observed, saith the French version. Now though this be not in the Hebrew, yet the word may imply as much, it being an idea, pattern, or platform to which a thing is to be confirmed. The ordinances; rites and orders, rules of governing priests, and their services. These are again repeated in the next words of the verse, which is usual in Scripture, and with this prophet. Write it in their sight: that it may be remembered, they shall have a draught of it from thy hand, and drawn in their sight, that they may inquire of any particular wherein doubt ariseth. That they may keep the whole form thereof: as Moses and Solomon did, so must the builders of this temple, frame the whole to the pattern or exemplar set before them, for not doing whereof a heavy account lieth on some in the church.
