VER. 1.
When Ephraim spake, trembling, he exalted himself in Israel; but when he offended in Baal, he died.
This Chapter is partly Legal and partly Evangelical. Legal, charging this people with their fin of Idolatry, and of Ingratitude, showing them Gods wrath, partly already inflicted, and further threatened them to the 14. Verse; and again in the 15. and 16. Verses, there returning to further threats: but in the 14. Vers. there is something mixed of the Gospel in the midst of these charges and threats. Ephraim would have put off all the evil that came on him, upon God; but God charges Ephraim himself with it, all the change of Ephraim's condition from what it had been, comes from his own sin; and the evil that is like further to come upon him, will be for their own sin.
