Ezekiel 15:8

And I will make the land desolate, because they have committed a trespass, saith the Lord GOD. They have committed a trespass - They have prevaricated; they are the worst of sinners, and shall have the heaviest of punishments. Can men suppose that it is possible to hide even their dark hearts from God?

Commentary on the Bible, by Adam Clarke [1831].
