Deuteronomy7:10
10 And repayeth them that hate him , to their face , to destroy them: he will not be slack to him that hateth him, he will repay him to his face.
Not onely those who hate him directly and properly, (for so did few or none of the [illegible: 1 word] to whom he here speaks,) but those who hate him by construction and consequence, those who hate and oppose his People, and Word, and Image, those who presumptuously and wilfully persist in the breach of Gods Commandements, as appears from v. 9. where the love of God, to which this hatred is opposite, is described and expressed by the keeping of his commandements.
i. e. Openly, and so as they shall see it, and not be able to avoid it.
To wit, so as some [illegible: 1 word] [illegible: 1 word] slackness, 2 Pet. 3. 9. so as to delay it beyond the fit time or season for vengeance, yet withal he is long-suffering, and slow to anger, as that and other places inform us.
