Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Wherefore I gave them also statutes that were not good, and judgments whereby they should not live;

I gave The simple meaning of this place is, that when the Israelites had rebelled against God, despised his statutes, and polluted his sabbaths, in effect cast him off, and given themselves up wholly to their idols, then He, in a just judgment for their disobedience abandoned them, `gave them up to a reprobate mind,' Ro 1:28

and suffered them to walk after the idolatrous, cruel, and impious customs and ordinances of the heathen; by which they were ripened for the destruction which he intended to bring upon them, that they might learn to know God by his judgments, seeing they had despised his mercies. In the same sense God is said judicially to `send a strong delusion, that they should believe a lie' to those who `received not the love of the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.' Eze 20:26,39 14:9-11 De 4:27,28 28:36 Ps 81:12 Isa 66:4 Ro 1:21-28 2th 2:9-11
