Universal; both referring to the subject, viz. All orders of men from the highest to the lowest. Jeremiah directs his advice to the Princes, Priests, Prophets, and People, and in respect of the term from which; all sin, every false way: and Through; not in pretence only, or in part. Not like that of Jehu's, who took away Baal out of Israel, but retained Jeroboam's sin▪ Nor only like that of some good Kings of Judah of whom it is said, they did that which was ought, but still the high places were left standing, and the People sacrificed at them: But like Hezekiah's, and Josiah's, who sought to remove every offence: And there must be both Repentance and Reformation: A work that reacheth to both heart and life, both inward and outward man. Of what efficacy this is will appear, if we shall consider.
