Adam Agreement Broken Covenant Dealt Faithlessly Transgressed Treacherously Unfaithful
6:7 But they {g} like men have transgressed the covenant: there have they dealt treacherously against me.
(g) That is, like small and weak persons.
6:7 The covenant - The law of their God. There - In that very place, the good land which by covenant I gave them: they have broken my covenant.
6:4-11 Sometimes Israel and Judah seemed disposed to repent under their sufferings, but their goodness vanished like the empty morning cloud, and the early dew, and they were as vile as ever. Therefore the Lord sent awful messages by the prophets. The word of God will be the death either of the sin or of the sinner. God desired mercy rather than sacrifice, and that knowledge of him which produces holy fear and love. This exposes the folly of those who trust in outward observances, to make up for their want of love to God and man. As Adam broke the covenant of God in paradise, so Israel had broken his national covenant, notwithstanding all the favours they received. Judah also was ripe for Divine judgments. May the Lord put his fear into our hearts, and set up his kingdom within us, and never leave us to ourselves, nor suffer us to be overcome by temptation.
