1! The hypocrisie of the Jewes is reproued.
1a He decrieth their hypocrisie, which vanted them selues to be Israelites & were not so in dede.
1b Meaning, the fountaine and stocke.
2c They make a shew, as thogh they wolde haue none other God.
3d He sheweth that thei colde not accuse him in anie thing, for asmuche as he had performed whatsoeuer he had promised.
4e I haue done for thee more then I promised, that thy sutbbernes and impudencie might haue bene ouercome.
5f How you shuldest be deliuered out of Babylon.
6g Wil he not acknowledge this my benefite & declare it vnto others?
7h Shewing that mans arrogancie is the cause why God doeth not declare all thing sat once, lest thei shuld attribute this knowledge to their owne wisdome.
8i From that thime that I broght thee out of Egypt: for that deliuerance was the birth of the Church.
9k As it was my fre mercie that I did chuse thee: so is it my fre mercie that must saue thee.
10l For I had respect to thy weakenes and informitie: for in siluer there is some purenes, but in vs there is nothing, but drosse.
10m I toke thee out of the fornace where thou shuldest haue bene consumed.
11! The Lord alone wil be worshipped .
11n God joyneth the saluacion of his with his owne honour: so that they can not perish, but his glorie shulde be diminished, as {Deut. 32:27}.
11o Read {Chap. 42,8}.
12p {Read 41,4}.
13q To obey me & to do whatsoeuer I commande them.
14r Meaning, Cyrus, whome he had chosen to destroy Babylon.
16s Since the time that I declared my self to your fathers.
16t Thus the Prophet speaketh for him self & to assure them of these things.
17u What things shal do thee good.
19x That is, the prosperous estate of Israel.
20! Of their deliuerance out of Babylon.
20y After that he had forewarned them of their captiuitie, and of the cause thereof, he sheweth them the great joye, that shal come of their deliuerance.
21z He sheweth that it shalbe as easy to deliuer them, as he did their fathers out of Egypt.
22a Thus, he speaketh that the wicked hypocrites shulde not abuse Gods promes in whome was nether faith, nor repentance, as {Chap. 57,21}.
