Matthew Poole and continuators on Jeremiah 10:7

7 Who would not fear thee, O king of nations? for to thee doth it appertain: for as much as among all the wise men of the nations, and in all their kingdoms there is none like unto thee.

He is called a great King, Mal. 1.14. q. d. thou, by whom all Nations are governed, and all affairs in them disposed, and by none else, who would worship any but thee, or be afraid of any, but thee, seeing it is fit for, and therefore can belong to none besides, as in the next words, it is thy right and due, or who can be so stupid, as not to acknowledge one supream being, and this to be but one, as among the heathens, Socrates, Plato, Seneca and divers others did, and therefore is it not a prodigious thing, that any should so withhold the truth in unrighteousness, be so gross as to worship many gods?

q. d. If you search among all their Wisemen and Philosophers, all the great men and Rulers in their Kingdoms. For these the Heathens were wont to Worship as gods after death, Wise men, for their Wisedom, and Kings for their Power, you'l find none to compare with God either for Wisedom or Power: their wise men are but as so many Fools.
