Then the Lord said unto me, etc.] Again; for this is a repetition of the above order: proclaim all these words in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem: with a loud voice, and openly, that all may hear: saying, hear ye the words of this covenant, and do them; which their forefathers promised, when the covenant was made with them, (<022407>Exodus 24:7), but did not perform; hearing without doing is of little avail; not the hearers, but the doers of the law are justified; wherefore men should not be content with hearing only, (<450213>Romans 2:13 <590122>James 1:22).
