Ezekiel16:42

42 So will I make my fury towards thee to rest, and my jealousie shall depart from thee, and I will be quiet, and will be no more angry.

It may admit a doubt, whether this be spoken in way of promise and kindness, or of menace and wrath. This latter seems intended, as if God said the Jealousie whereto you have provok't me, will never cease, till these Judgments have utterly destroyed you, and cut you off, as the anger of an abus'd Husband ceaseth in the divorce, and publick punishment of the Adulteress.

I will no more concern my self for thee, nor be troubled at thy carriage, whatever it be, since thou art no more mine.

With the anger, which is in the breast of a Husband troubled for, and angry at the miscarriages of a Wife, he loved.
