John Trapp on Jeremiah 11:20

Ver. 20. But O Lord of hoſts] Thou who art potentiſſimus & liberrimus, a moſt powerful and free Agent.

That tryeſt the reines and the heart] And ſo knoweſt with what mind I make this complaint and requeſt.

Let me ſee thy vengeance upon them] A prophetical imprecation guided by Gods Spirit, and not lightly to be imitated. So the Church prayed againſt Julian the Apoſtate, whom they knew to be a deſperate enemy, and to have committed that ſin unto death. So perhaps had theſe men of Anathoth.
