‏ Isaiah 33:14

14. sinners in Zion--false professors of religion among the elect people (Mt 22:12).

hypocrites--rather, "the profane"; "the abandoned" [Horsley].

who, &c.--If Jehovah's wrath could thus consume such a host in one night, who could abide it, if continued for ever (Mr 9:46-48)? Fire is a common image for the divine judgments (Is 29:6; 30:30).

among us--If such awful judgments have fallen on those who knew not the true God, how infinitely worse shall fall on us who, amid religious privileges and profession, sin against God, (Lu 12:47, 48; Jas 4:17)?
