Wrath was out against Ephraim and Judah some time, and had almost consumed them before they would take notice of Obser. 1 it. Hence observe, That by occasion of the pride and stoutness of mans heart, he will not easily be brought to see and acknowledge the hand of God. Isa. 26.11.1 Lord, when thine hand is lifted up, they will not see: They will not own the hand of God against them, they think it would be a shame to them, they rather would bear the world in hand that all is well with them: So it was ⟨p. 489⟩for a long time with Ephraim, and Judah, but at length they saw their sickness and their wound.
