Chapter 2 contains a most
touching appeal to the people at Jerusalem. It requires
no explanation, but deserves the heart's serious
attention. It testifies in the most striking manner to
the kindness and tender love of the Lord. Only that we
have here only the comparison of what they had originally
been as planted by the Lord, and His ways of love, not
any reference to the coming of the Lord. Christ is not in
view nor the counsels of God as in Isaiah, though we
shall find it further on; but their responsibility under
God's touching ways of grace with them is much more fully
brought out, and final blessing is spoken of in the
following chapter.
