On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

A thousand pities that such a good land as this should be made desolate, but this is not all; it is this holy land, the land of Israel, a people in covenant with God; it is Immanuel's land, a land where God was known and worshipped, and yet thus wasted. It is no new thing for God to bring desolating judgments upon a people that in profession are near to him, Amos iii.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

It was of the greatest consequence to impress all with the strong and abiding conviction, that while the covenant of grace had special blessings belonging to it, it at the same time had curses in reserve for transgressors, the infliction of which would be as certain, as lasting and severe. This was the advantage contemplated in the law being rehearsed a second time.
