Footnotes

51a	TG Stiffneckedness.
b	Jer. 6: 10. 10 To whom shall I speak, and give ^awarning, that they may hear? behold, their ear is ^buncircumcised, and they cannot hearken: behold, the word of the Lord is unto them a reproach; they have no delight in it. Rom. 2: 29 (28-29). 29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and ^acircumcision is that of the heart, in the ^bspirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.
c	TG Rebellion.
d	Neh. 9: 30. 30 Yet many years didst thou ^aforbear them, and ^btestifiedst against them by thy ^cspirit in thy ^dprophets: yet would they not give ear: therefore gavest thou them into the hand of the people of the lands.
e	Mal. 3: 7. 7 ¶ Even from the days of your ^afathers ye are gone away from mine ^bordinances, and have not kept them. ^cReturn unto me, and I will return unto you, saith the Lord of hosts. But ye said, Wherein shall we return? Matt. 23: 32. 32 Fill ye up then the ^ameasure of your ^bfathers. Hel. 13: 25 (25-29). 25 And now when ye talk, ye say: If our days had been in the days of our ^afathers of old, we would not have ^bslain the prophets; we would not have stoned them, and cast them out.
