Hatred of the Godly
Isaiah 66:5
Hear the word of the LORD, you that tremble at his word; Your brothers that hated you, that cast you out for my name's sake, said…


They who hate them are their own brethren and, what aggravates the sin still more, Jehovah's name is the ground (cf. Luke 21:12) on which they are hated by them.

(F. Delitzsch, D. D.)
