Matthew Poole and continuators on Jeremiah 32:33

33 And they have turned unto me the back, and not the face, though I taught them, rising up early, and teaching them, yet they have not hearkned to receive instruction .

They have behaved themselves against me contemptuously, like men, who when they are spoken to, admonished, or instructed instead of looking towards those who instruct, or admonish them, turn their back upon them.

Yet their sin had not been so great and hainous, if I by my Prophets had not diligently instructed them, and they as stubbornly refused to be taught, or amended by their instruction.
