Isaiah 29:21 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

That make a man — That condemn a man, as if he was a great criminal. For him — For God's faithful prophets and ministers. The gate — There the people used to assemble, both upon civil and sacred accounts, and there prophets used to deliver their prophecies. Turn — From his right. The just — The faithful ministers of God. Nought — Not for any great advantage, but for a trifle.

Isaiah 29:21

21 That make a man an offender for a word, and lay a snare for him that reproveth in the gate, and turn aside the just for a thing of nought.
