On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

It was a horrible thing, a thing to be detested and the consequences of it dreaded. To frighten ourselves from sin, let us call it a horrible thing. In short, this: (1.) The leaders misled the people: The prophets prophesy falsely, counterfeit a commission from heaven when they are factors for hell.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan
