Isaiah64:12

Ver. 12. Wilt thou refrain thy ſelf for theſe things?] Or, Canſt thou contain thy ſelf at theſe things? No, he cannot: witneſs his anſwer hereunto, chap. 65.1. The obſtinate Jews do in vain ſtill recite theſe words in their Synagogues, as Hierom here noteth.

Wilt thou hold thy peace?] And, by thy ſilence, ſeem to conſent to the enemies outrages, and our calamities? Habet acrimonian[illegible: 1 letter], ſaith Hyperius; there is ſome ſharpneſs in theſe ſhort queſtions: and yet becauſe they were full of faith and fervency, they were highly accepted in Heaven.

And afflict us very ſore?] Heb. Ʋſque valde? unto very much or unto extremity?
