John Trapp on Ezekiel 20:4

Ver. 4. Wilt thou judge them?] Or, wilt thou excuſe them? Or, wilt thou intercede for them? If thou haſt never ſo good a mind to do ſo, yet do it not: rather reprove them for and convince them of their ſins. Spare thy charity, and exerciſe thine authority of having in readineſſe to revenge their diſobedience, 2 Cor. 10.6.

Cauſe them to know the abominations of their fathers] By themſelves avowed, abbetted, augmented: their fathers iniquity they have drawn together with cart-ropes of vanity.
