“Hear ye the words of this covenant, and speak unto the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem;”
King James Version (KJV)
Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary
11:1-10 God never promised to bestow blessings on his rational creatures, while they persist in wilful disobedience. Pardon and acceptance are promised freely to all believers; but no man can be saved who does not obey the command of God to repent, to believe in Christ, to separate from sin and the world, to choose self-denial and newness of life. In general, men will hearken to those who speak of doctrines, promises, and privileges; but when duties are mentioned, they will not bend their ear.
“And these are the kings that reigned in the land of Edom, before there reigned any king over the children of Israel.”
