§. 113. Of turning Gods patience into vengeance.

Verse 11.
So I sware in my wrath; they shall not enter into my rest.

THe effect of the fore-mentioned wilfulnesse of the Israelites in the wildernesse, was a fearful effect, in that it grieved God, as is shewed before in §. 102, &c. But here it is much aggravated, in that it provokes him to swear vengeance.

The particle of reference is in the Hebrew a 1.1 a relative, and translated, Unto whom; namely, unto those Israelites that sinned.

In the Greek it is a b 1.2 Conjunction, which implieth an inference of an effect fol∣lowing upon that which goeth before; They sinned: so God swore punishment. Some translate it, c 1.3 Therefore. All tends to the same purpose; namely, that mans obstinacy so incenseth God, as he cannot forbear revenge, and thereupon swears it.
