John Trapp on Ezekiel 13:10

Ver. 10. Becauſe, even becauſe] Heb. for that, and for that: an angry Epiziuxes: See ver. 8.

Saying peace, peace] Making all fair weather before them, when as the ſtorm of Gods wrath (never to be blown over) was burſting out upon them.

And one built up a wall] Ipſe aedificabat parietem, one of the devils chief dirt dawbers: ſuch as was Shemajah, Hananiah, &c. Jer. 28.29. who, together with their ſhe upholſters, that ſewed pillows to allarwholes, ver. 17. made foul work, and did much miſchief among Gods people; like as do the Jeſuites and Jeſuitiſſes (into whom all the old ſeducers have fled and hid themſelves) at this day.

And lo others daubed it] By cunning colluſion, they plaiſtered and parjetted over the mud wall that was ſo ſet up. Ita extruunt illi vel potius deſtruunt Eccleſiam Dei, ſuch proper builders were theſe. Like unto whom are the Popiſh Prieſts,Ju[illegible: 1 letter]. who bring the poor people into a fools paradiſe: and ſuch idle Miniſters amongſt us, as ſhoot off at beſt, a few pot-guns againſt groſs ſins: or when they have done their worſt at it, lick them whole again with I hope better things of you, or I hope there are none ſuch here, &c. Many ſilly people alſo judge themſelves honeſt, becauſe the daubing Miniſter will give them the beggarly paſport, and ſo dye like lambes, being wofully cheated, and willing to be ſo, Jer. 5.31. Mat. 24.11.

With untempered morter] Which will make but a bulging wall; not like to ſtand long.
