Jeremiah 2:14 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

Is Israel a servant? is he a homeborn slave? why is he spoiled? Is Israel a servant? - Is he a slave purchased with money, or a servant born in the family? He is a son himself. If so, then, why is he spoiled? Not because God has not shown him love and kindness; but because he forsook God, turned to and is joined with idols.

Jeremiah 2:14

14 Is Israel a servant? is he a homeborn slave? why is he spoiled?
