Jeremiah14:12

12 When they fast, I will not hear their cry ▪ and when they offer burnt-offering and an oblation, I will not accept them, c but I will consume them by the sword and by the famine, and by the pestilence .

The like threatning we have, Prov. 2.28. Isa. 1.15. chap. 11.11. Ezech. 8.18. Micah 3.4. Men may so long despise Gods calls, exhortations and counsels as their case may be desperate as to the prevention of temporal judgments by such Religious applications to God as ordinarily have their effect, to prevent and remove judgments, see chap. 15.1. Ezek. 14.14.20.

He threatneth to add to their Plague, three sore judgments, ordinarily accompanying one another both in Gods threatnings, chap. 29.17, 18, and 34.17. &c.

Marginal references: Isa. 58.1. Zech. 7.7, 13.; chap. 6.20. and 7.21, 22.; chap. 9.16.
