5. I hewed them by the prophets —that is, I announced by the prophets that they should be hewn asunder, like trees of the forest. God identifies His act with that of His prophets; the word being His instrument for executing His will ( Jeremiah 1:10 ; Ezekiel 43:3 ). by . . . words of my mouth — ( Isaiah 11:4 ; Jeremiah 23:29 ; Hebrews 4:12 ). thy judgments —the judgments which I will inflict on thee, Ephraim and Judah ( Hebrews 4:12- : ). So " thy judgments," that is, those inflicted on thee ( Hebrews 4:12- : ). are as the light, c.—like the light, palpable to the eyes of all, as coming from God, the punisher of sin. HENDERSON translates, "lightning" (compare Margin, Job 37:3 Job 37:15 ). return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-6" class="com-number"
