John Trapp on Jeremiah 5:3

Ver. 3. O Lord are not thine eyes upon the truth?] And can theſe painted Hypocrites hope ever to pleaſe thee? how much are they miſtaken?

Thou haſt ſtricken them, but they have not grieved] As being paſt feeling, of a dead and dedolent diſpoſition: like naughty boyes, which are the worſe for a whipping: or Solomons drunkard who is beaten but never the better, Prov. 23.35. There is no ſurer ſign of a carnal Iſraelite, of a profligate profeſſour, then to be ſenſeleſs or incorrigible under publike judgements.
