On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

There was therefore strong reason to believe that God would appear for them. As there is no trouble more grievous to a generous and ingenuous mind than reproach and calumny, so there is none more grievous to a holy gracious soul than blasphemy and dishonour done to God. 17 All this is come upon us; yet have we not forgotten thee, neither have we dealt falsely in thy covenant.
