Therefore thus saith the Lord God of Israel, etc.] Who, though kind and gracious to Israel as their covenant God, is yet just and righteous, as well as he is a sovereign Being and Lord of all: behold, I am bringing such evil upon Jerusalem and Judah, that whosoever heareth of it, both his ears shall tingle; it will make such a noise in the world, and be so horrible and terrible; and if, he report of it would be so dreadful as to make a man’s ears tingle, and his heart tremble, what must it be to endure it! (<262214>Ezekiel 22:14 <090311>1 Samuel 3:11).
