3 What thy sins want in bulk and magnitude, thou makest up in number; Your transgressions are many, your back-slidings are increased, Jerem. 5. 6. Thy continuance in sins makes thy sins equivalent to greater 1sins; if your sins fall short of others in nature, it may be they exceed in aggravations; it may be thou sinnest against more mercy, more knowledge: it may be thou mayest have more sin in thine heart, though another's sins do more break out in his life.
