## Chapters 22 and 23

Introduction Chapter 1 Chapter 2 Chapter 3 Chapter 4 Chapters 5 and 6 Chapter 7 Chapter 8 Chapter 9 Chapter 10 Chapter 11 Chapter 12 Chapters 13 and 14 Chapter 15 Chapter 16 Chapter 17 Chapters 18 and 19 Chapters 20 and 21 Chapters 22 and 23 Chapter 24 Chapter 25 Chapters 26 to 28 Chapters 29 to 32 Chapter 33 Chapter 34 Chapter 35 Chapter 36 Chapter 37 Chapters 38 and 39 Chapters 40 to 43 Chapter 44 Chapters 45 and 46 Chapters 47 and 48 | #### Jerusalem's sin recapitualted; God's judgment justified Chapter 22 recapitulates the sin of Jerusalem, of her prophets, her priests, and her princes. The eye of God sought for some one to stand in the gap before Him, and found none. His indignation should consume them. What force the prophecies give to those words of the Lord, "How often would I have gathered thy children, as a hen gathers her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!" In chapter 23 Jehovah justifies Himself for judging Jerusalem by the iniquity and unfaithfulness of her walk. Her whoredom with the Gentiles brought her early course to mind. The same conduct shewed the same nature. She has ended as she began, because at heart she was the same. Samaria's lot should be hers. The latter is called a tent or tabernacle, and Jerusalem "My tabernacle in her." |
