4. When God brings his Judgments on a people:
And here,
1. These Judgments, whether public or personal, are Testimonies of Gods displeasure at men for neglecting to seek him. He herein witnesseth his righteous anger at them; and the reason is because they have not sought him, but something else instead of him, Jer. 2.17. Isa. 57.17. If they had not forgotten him, he had not fallen upon them.
