Ver. 19. Who is blind but my ſervant?] Who ſo blind as he that will not ſee? Iſrael was Gods peculiar, and had the light of his Law; yet were blind as beetles.
Or deaf as my meſſenger?] The Prieſts and Levites, Mal. 3.7. Such were the Papiſts dolts, till awakened by the Reformation.

Rom. 2.17, 18, 19, 20. as likewiſe the Popiſh Perfectiſts, the Jewiſh Doctours with their pretended Maſhlamnutha's, and the Turkiſh Muſſalmans, i. e. Perfectionaries.
