Jeremiah2:7

7 And I brought you into a plentiful country , to eat the fruit thereof, and the goodness thereof; but when ye entred, ye defiled my land , and made mine heritage an abomination.

Heb. Land of Carmel, Isa. 29.17. understand Canaan, Num. 13.27. see on Isa. 35.2.

To enjoy all the blessing of it.

i. e. Consecrated to my name, Lev. 22.23. and this you have defiled by going a whoring after your Idols, chap. 3.1. and many other abominations, Psal. 106.29, 35, 37, 38, 39.

In the same sense that it is said in the foregoing clause my Land, and which you received from me, as your heritage, the place that I chose for my Churches present habitation, and earnest of their future heavenly one.
