Vers. 13.
Therefore it is come to passe, that as he cried, and they would not heare, so they cried, and I would not heare, saith the Lord of hostes.

* 1.1THe description of the punishment, the which consisteth of three partes, whereby the greatnes thereof is shewed, that o∣ther men, and the Iewes themselues might shunne, and feare to i∣nitate or follow such stubbornes of minde against God.* 1.2 The first degree of the punishment is that they were not heard of God, no not when they cried vnto God. The reason is from the rules of dis∣tributiue iustice, as they call it, and such as punisheth the sins of men, the which commaundeth, that men should be punished after the same manner, after the which they haue offended. They would not heare God crying vnto them: so likewise were not they heard of God, when as they cryed vnto him in their afflictions or troubles. So God telleth them of the like punishment in his Pro∣phet Isai cap. 65. ver. 12. in these wordes: Therefore I will number you to the sword, and all you shall bowe downe to the slaughter, because I called, and ye did not answere: I spake, and ye heard not, but did e∣uill in my sight, & did chuse that thing, which I would not. So Psal. 18. ver. 25.26. Dauid teacheth, that God will deale with men ac∣cording to their behauiour and deseruing: with the godly (saith he of God) thou wilt shew thy selfe godly: with the vpright man, thou

wilt shew thy selfe vpright. With the pure thou wilt shew thy selfe pure, and with the froward thou wilt shew thy selfe froward. Now this is a most grieuous punishment, not to bee heard, or receiued of God.
