John Trapp on Nehemiah 9:30

Verſe 30. Yet many years didſt thou forbear them] Heb. Protract over them: or draw out thy loving kindneſſe toward them, to the utmoſt.

And teſtifiedſt againſt them] As verſe 29. They wanted not for warnings or wooings, with, Woe unto thee O Jeruſalem: wilt thou not be made cleane? when ſhall it once be?

Yet would they not hear] But as Sea-monſters, or Catadupes, or men borne in a mill, or as one that is running a race; give him never ſo good counſel, he cannot ſtay to hear it.

Therefore gaveſt thou them] As uncounſelable, incorrigible.
