John Trapp on Isaiah 3:8

Ver. 8. For Jeruſalem is faln] Therefore Ile not meddle, ſith it is a very ſad thing to be Phyſitian to a dying State, quando conclamatum eſt, when men are forſaken of their hopes.

Becauſe their tongue and their doings are againſt the Lord] They ſet their mouths againſt Heaven, and like ſo many Wolves they howl upwards: they lay the reins in the neck, and let their unruly tongues run riot. And as they talk, ſo they act, doing wickedly with both hands earneſtly, againſt the Author of their Being and Well-being.

To provoke the eyes of his glory] His eyes run to and fro through the earth: and all the wickedneſs in the world is committed before his face. This they know, and yet, go on in ſin, as if they did it on purpoſe to provoke him, and to ſee what he can do. Oecolampadius noteth, that Gods eyes are here mentioned, becauſe men are eaſily provoked to anger by a hurt in the eye. And Junius here obſerveth, that Gods eyes are called the Eyes of his Glory, becauſe as he is glorious in himſelf, ſo he is either to be glorified by us, or elſe he will ſurely glorifie himſelf upon us, ſuch eſpecially as are obſtinate and impudent, as here.
