Ver. 19. When the Lord saw it, he abhorred them, &c.— This might be rendered more emphatically and nearer to the Hebrew, and the Lord saw, and through indignation rejected his sons and daughters. Moses still speaks in the prophetic style: the daughters are here particularly mentioned, because the women were notoriously guilty of provoking God by their idolatry: in proof of which, see Jeremiah 7:8; Jeremiah 44:15.Ezekiel 8:14.
