‏ Jeremiah 7:10

     10. And come—And yet come (Eze 23:39).

      We are delivered—namely, from all impending calamities. In spite of the prophet's threats, we have nothing to fear; we have offered our sacrifices, and therefore Jehovah will "deliver" us.

      to do all these abominations—namely, those enumerated (Jer 7:9). These words are not to be connected with "we are delivered," but thus: "Is it with this design that ye come and stand before Me in this house," in order that having offered your worthless sacrifices ye may be taken into My favor and so do all these abominations (Jer 7:9) with impunity? [MAURER].

‏ Ezekiel 23:39

     36-44. A summing up of the sins of the two sisters, especially those of Judah.

      wilt thou judge—Wilt thou (not) judge (see on Eze 20:4)?
