This of Judahs ruling with God, Luther, Meisnerus, 1and others, do think that it hath reference unto the story that you find in 2 King. 18. the story of Hezekiah, of the great Reformation that he made: Truly if it should be so, then it appears that this people had continued very long in besetting God, and his Prophet with lies, for then the Prophet had been threescore years and ten a Prophet to this People, and had been showing to them their sin above seventy years; for from the time of Hosea's prophecy, 2unto the beginning of Hezekiah's reign, it will appear to be above threescore and ten years, and still the Prophet is complaining of this people, at that time when Judah did thus rule with God, That they still continued besetting God with lies.
