21:10
In the following verses the doom of Judah and Jerusalem is
passed, and it is a heavy doom. The prophets were sent in the
first place to teach them the knowledge of God, to remind them
of their duty, and direct them in it: if they succeeded not
in that, their next work was to reprove them for their sins,
and to set them in view before them, that they might repent
and reform, and return to their duty: if in this they
prevailed not, their next work was to foretell the judgments
of God, that the terror of them might awaken to repentance
those who would not be made sensible of the obligations of his
love; or else that the execution of them, in their season,
might be a demonstration of the divine mission of the prophets
who foretold them. They were made judges to those who would
not hear and receive them as teachers.--Henry.
