Ezekiel33:6

6 But if the watchman see the sword come, and and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned: if the sword come and take away any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity , but his blood will I require at the watchmans hand.

Neglect his charge, which is to give the Alarm.

But, unwarned, are surprized by the Enemy.

Punisht by the Lord for his sins, and trespasses formerly done, and he is destroyed under the present fault of not watching, which is a fault in every one, that is so secure in time of War.

The guilt of that blood.

Charge upon, and for it punish the Watchman, who sinn'd in not giving warning.
