Ezekiel13:8-9

Ver. 8. Behold I am againſt you] Heb. Behold I againſt you, by an angry Apoſiopeſis. The Chaldee hath it, I will ſend my wrath againſt you; and that's an evil meſſenger; for who knoweth the power of thy Wrath? ſaith Moſes, Pſal. 90.11.

Dicit eos ſore prorſus extraneos ch Eccleſia. Teſſeris Eccleſiae aſpectabilibus abalienati permanebunt. Jun.Ver. 9. And my hand ſhall be upon the Prophets] Gods hand is a mighty hand, 1 Pet. 5.6. the heaven is ſpanned by it, the earth held in the hollow of it.

They ſhall not be in the aſſembly of my people] Or, in the ſecret, or counſels: they ſhall have no communion with them. A heavy threat: for the communion of Saints, next unto communion with God, is the greateſt comfort here attainable.

Neither ſhall they be written] As members of that Commonwealth, (much leſſe of the Jeruſalem that is above, Eſa. 4.4.) but rooted out of the world, written in the earth, Jer. 17.13. See Pſal. 69.28.

Neither ſhall they enter] They ſhall never come back out of Babylon, nor enter into heaven.
