Ezekiel16:50

Ver. 50. And they were haughty] This ſin of theirs is once more inſtanced as the root of the reſt, the hate of heaven, and gate to hell.

And committed abomination before me] That unnatural filthineſs, which taketh its name from them. This in the Levant is not held a vice: and in Mexico, it is one of the Spaniſh vertues.

Therefore I took them away as I ſaw good] ſc. By raining down hell from heaven upon them: hereby alſo God gave men an example of that rule, that hainous ſins bring hideous plagues, as Herodotus alſo ſaith of the Fall of Troy.
