They turned back from him.
1There is a two-fold turning back; First, Corporal; Secondly, Moral or spiritual, none can corporally turn back from God, though some attempt it; to what hiding place soever we turn our selves, we cannot be hid from him who filleth every place? But there are many who morally turn back and depart from the living God. Sinners would turn their persons back from God, and hide their heads, they would get quite out of his sight and reach, though they cannot; but all of them turn back from God in their hearts.
