Commentaries

Matthew Henry's Commentary

18:18-23 When the prophet called to repentance, instead of obeying the call, the people devised devices against him. Thus do sinners deal with the great Intercessor, crucifying him afresh, and speaking against him on earth, while his blood is speaking for them in heaven. But the prophet had done his duty to them; and the same will be our rejoicing in a day of evil.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown

22. cry—by reason of the enemy bursting in: let their houses be no shelter to them in their calamities [Calvin].

digged … pit—(Jer 18:20; Ps 57:6; 119:85).
