1a Borne in Mareshah a citie of Judah.
1! The destruction of Judah & Israel because of their idolatrie.
2b Because of the malice, & obstinacie of the people whome he had so oft exhorted to repentance, he sommoneth them to Gods judgements taking all creatures, & God him self to witnes, that the preaching of his Prophetes, which they haue abused, shal be reuenged.
3c Meaning hereby that God wil come to judgement against the strong cities & holdes.
5e That is, the idolatrie and infection.
5d Samaria, which shulde haue bene an example to all Israel of true religion & justice, was the puddle, and stewes of all idolatire, and corruption, & boasted them selues of their father Jaakob.
7g The gaine that came by their idoles, shalbe consumed as a thing of noght; for as the wages or riches of harlottes are wickedly gotten, so are they viley and spedely spent.
7f Which they gathered by euil practices, & thoght that their idoles had inriched them therewith for their seruice vnto them.
10i Which was a citie nere to Jerusalem {Josh. 18,23}, & signifieth dust: therefore he willeth them to mourne, & roule themselues in the dust, for their dustie citie.
10i Which was a citie nere to Jerusalem, Josh 18,23, & signifieth dust: therefore
10h Lest the Philistims our enemies rejoyce at our destruction.
11l He shal not departe before he hathe ouercome you and so syou shal pay for his tarying.
11k These were cities whereby the enemie shulde passe as he came to Judah.
12m For Rabshakeh has shut vp Jerusalem, that thei colde not send to succour them.
13o Thou first receiuedst the idolatrie of Jeroboam, & so didest infect Jerusalem.
13n To flee aways for Saneherib laid siege first to the citie, & remained therein when he sent his captaines,& and armie against Jerusalem.
14p Thou shalt bribe the Philistims thy neighbours, but they shal deceiue thee as wel as thei of Jerusalem.
15r For so they thoght them selues for the strength of their citie.
15q He prophecieth against his owne citie, & because it signified an heritage, he saith that God wolde send and heire to possesse it.
