Commentary on Isaiah 24:14

HENRY_FULL · Isaiah 24:14
"Prov.5" The scope of this chapter is much the same with that of ch. ii . To write the same things, in other words, ought not to be grievous, for it is safe, Phil. iii. 1 . Here is, I. An exhortation to get acquaintance with and submit to the laws of wisdom in general, ver. 2 . II. A particular caution against the sin of whoredom, ver. 3-14 . III. Remedies prescribed against that sin. 1. Conjugal love, ver. 15-20 . 2. A regard to God's omniscience, ver. 21 . 3. A dread of the miserable end of wicked people, ver. 22, 23 . And all little enough to arm young people against those fleshly lusts which war against the soul.
