Isaiah17:10
Ver. 10. Becauſe thou haſt forgotten the God of thy ſalvation] Thou haſt diſloyally departed from him, as a Wife doth from her Husband: though he were both able and ready to have ſaved thee.
Therefore ſhalt thou plant pleaſant plants] But all to no purpoſe. Hoc patres familias pro regula habeant oeconomica: There is a curſe upon the wicked, though never ſo induſtrious: all will not do, God cannot abide to be forgotten.
And ſhalt ſet it with ſtrange ſlips] i. e. Rare and excellent ones:Exotica fere non niſi precioſa afferuntur. Jun. but for the enemies uſe, as ver. 11. Deut. 28.29.
