Isaiah57:18
Ver. 18. I have ſeen his waies] His waies of covetouſneſſe, croſſneſs, &c. I could be as croſs as he for the heart of him, Pſal. 18.26. But,
I will heal him] q. d. I ſee theſe froward children will ſay nothing to heart: frowns will not humble them, blows will not benefit them: if I do not ſave them, till they ſeek me, they'l never be ſaved. Therefore I will work for mine own name ſake. See Ezek. 20.8, 14, 22, 44.
And reſtore comforts unto him, and to his mourners] To thoſe that mourn in ſecret for his ſins and miſeries, Ezek. 9.4. Matth. 5.4. and to others for their ſakes, ratione conſortii.
