On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

By this means Judah and Jerusalem have become as Sodom and Gomorrah, that were wicked, and sinners before the Lord exceedingly; and God looked upon them accordingly as fit for nothing but to be destroyed, as they were, with fire and brimstone. That they encouraged people in sin by their false prophecies.
