Ezekiel21:24
24 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because ye have made your iniquity to be remembred, in that your transgressions are discovered , so that in all your doings your sins do appear, because , I say, that ye are come to remembrance, ye shall be taken with the hand .
Either referring to God, who saw still their wicked perjuries, and other sins, which they persisted in, or rather referring to Nebuchadnezzar, and his Ministers of state, and war, to whose memory all the falsehood of the Jews was still kept up fresh by repeated disloyalty with reproach to God, whose oath the King, and inhabitants of Ierusalem had violated.
Against God, and against the King of Babylon, whose yoke you submitted to with promised obedience.
Visibly to all in Court, City, and Countrey.
Publick manage of matters of the Kingdom, and private too, you add sin to sin, and that without blushing for them, or hiding them.
The whole summ'd up for confirming the threats.
As Birds, or Beasts taken in the net encompassed therein, that they cannot get away, are taken with the hand, so shall you, and be carried into Babylon.
