Verse 14. "Cursed be the deceiver" - Those who act thus, as they cannot elude God's notice, so neither shall they escape his curse.
"And voweth, and sacrificeth-a corrupt thing" - The history of Ananias and Sapphira, Acts v. 1, &c., is a complete comment on this. It was high time to break up this corrupt service; and after this time God does not appear to have paid any regard to it, for he sent them no other prophet.
