Thou art thy mother's daughter, that lotheth her husband and her children; and thou art the sister of thy sisters, which lothed their husbands and their children: your mother was an Hittite, and your father an Amorite.
Thou art thy mother's daughter, that loathe her husband - i:e., as thy mother loathed her spiritual husband, God ("haters of God," Romans 1:30), so dost thou loathe Him; therefore the knowledge of the true God had originally been in Canaan, handed down from Noah (hence, we find Melchizedek, king of Salem, in Canaan, "priest of the most high God." Genesis 14:18), but Canaan apostatized from it: this was what constituted the blackness of the Canaanites' guilt.
Loatheth ... and her children - whom she put to death in honour of Saturn; a practice common among the Phoenicians.
Thou art the sister of thy sisters - thou art akin in guilt to Samaria and Sodom, to which thou art akin by birth. Moab and Ammon, the incestuous children of Lot, nephew of Abraham, Israel's progenitor, had their origin from Sodom; so Sodom might be called Judah's sister. Samaria, answering to the ten tribes of Israel, is of course sister to Judah.
