Isaiah10:1

WO unto them that decree unrighteous decrees , and that write grievousness , which they have prescribed:

Unto those Magistrates who make unjust Laws, and give unjust Sentences.

Either, 1. the Scribes, who were assistant to the Magistrates, and oft▪times did promote or execute such Decrees; or, 2. the unjust Magistrates, whose Decrees were usually written. So the same thing is repeated in other Words. Onely this writing may note their Obstinacy or Perseverance in their unjust Decrees, and their proceeding to the Execution of them.

Grievous things, such unjust Decrees as cause Grief and Vexation to their Subjects.

Marginal references: Psal. 58. 1. & 94. 20.; Or, to the writers that write grievousness.
