Deut, 1. 17. in the mids of the Gods] that is, among the Iudges (as the Chaldee translateth) or Magistrates, (v. 6) who in the Law are called Gods, Exod. 22. 8, 9, 28. because the word of God was given to them, Ioh. 10. 34, 35.
Vers. 2. How long, &c.] Thus God by his Pro∣phet judgeth and reproveth the Gods or Iudges [unspec 3] for unrighteous judgement. The Chaldee ad∣deth, How long ye wicked will ye judge, &c. ac∣cept the faces] respect the persons, lift up, admire, ho∣nour or favour the faces; a thing forbidden both concerning rich and poore, Deut. 1. 17. and 16. 19. Lev. 19. 15. Prov. 18. 5. Lam. 2. 1,—9.
Vers. 3. Iudge ye] that is, defend, deliver; see Psal. 43. 1. Esa. 1. 17. justifie] that is, doe ju∣stice, [unspec 3] as 2 Sam. 15. 4. and acquit or absolve him, his cause being right, Deut. 25. 1. Ier. 22. 3.

The Chaldee paraphraseth, The are not wise to doe good, and they understand not the Law. they will walke on] that is, continue wilfully ignorant, and sinfull in perverting justice, Mic. 3. 9.

Ephe. 4. 17, 18. and 5. 8. moved shall be] to wit, therefore moved, as the Chaldee explaineth it; or though moved be all the foundations; though all lawes and orders be violated, all estates disturbed, and strong∣est helpes come to ruine, Esa. 24. 18, 19.
Vers. 6. sonnes of the most high] the Chaldee pa∣raphraseth, [unspec 6] as the Angels of the high. And Magi∣strates should be as Angels for wisdome, 2 Sam. 14. 20.
