On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

It should touch them in a tender part; the new wine which they loved so well should be cut off from their mouth. Note, It is just with God to take away those comforts which are abused to luxury and excess, to recover the corn and wine which are prepared for Baal, which are made the food and fuel of a base lust. And to them judgments of that kind are most grievous.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan
