1 Samuel3:14
14 And therefore I have sworn unto the house of Eli, that the iniquity of Eli's house shall not be purged with sacrifice, nor offering for ever.
Which might be done before, though it be mentioned here only. Or, I do swear: the past Tense being common [illegible: 1+ letters]y put for the pre[illegible: 1+ letters]ent in the Hebrew Tongue.
Or, concerning, as the Praefix Lame[illegible: 1+ letters] is oft used, as Exod. 14. 3. and 18. 7. 2 Sam. 11. 7. Psal. 91. 11. compare with Matth. 4. 6. i i. e. The punishment threatned against Eli and his Family, shall not be prevented or hindred by all their Sacrifices, as they fondly imagine, but shall Infallibly be Executed.
