Yet the Lord testified against Israel, and against Judah, by all the prophets, [and by] all the seers, etc.] Against their sins, reproving them for them, dehorting them from them, exhorting them to repent and leave them; as in all preceding reigns, by Ahijah the Shilonite, by Elijah and Elisha, by Hosea, Amos, and Micah, and others: saying, turn ye from your ways; repent of them, and reform from them, worship of the calves particularly: and keep my commandments, and my statutes, according to all the law which I commanded your fathers; which was given them and enjoined them at Mount Sinai: and which I sent to you by my servants the prophets; by whom he put them in mind of them, explained them, and urged obedience to them.
