Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

It is true, they brought their troubles upon themselves by their sins; it was for them that God punished them; but it was for the peculiarity of their covenant, and the singularities of their religion, that their neighbours hated and persecuted them.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

If we wish them God speed, we are partakers of their evil deeds, 2 John 11 . When it is said, None will bless them, and show them respect, more is implied, namely, that all wise and good people will cry out shame on them, and beg of God to defeat them; and woe to those that have the prayers of the saints against them.
