Wesley's Notes

2:17 When - By the conduct of providence in the wilderness, keeping thee from all dangers.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

17. Literally, "Has not thy forsaking the Lord . procured this (calamity) to thee?" So the Septuagint: the Masoretic accents make "this" the subject of the verb, leaving the object to be understood. "Has not this procured (it, that is, the impending calamity) unto thee, that hast forsaken?" &c. (Jer 4:18).

led-(De 32:10).

the way-The article expresses the right way, the way of the Lord: namely, the moral training which they enjoyed in the Mosaic covenant.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

2:14-19 Is Israel a servant? No, they are the seed of Abraham. We may apply this spiritually: Is the soul of man a slave? No, it is not; but has sold its own liberty, and enslaved itself to divers lusts and passions. The Assyrian princes, like lions, prevailed against Israel. People from Egypt destroyed their glory and strength. They brought these calamities on themselves by departing from the Lord. The use and application of this is, Repent of thy sin, that thy correction may not be thy ruin. What has a Christian to do in the ways of forbidden pleasure or vain sinful mirth, or with the pursuits of covetousness and ambition?


Deuteronomy 32:10 "He found him in a desert land, And in the howling waste of a wilderness; He encircled him, He cared for him, He guarded him as the pupil of His eye.
Jeremiah 4:18 "Your ways and your deeds Have brought these things to you. This is your evil. How bitter! How it has touched your heart!" (NASB ©1995)
