SEV Biblia, Chapter 17:13
El SEÑOR protestaba entonces contra Israel y contra Judá, por mano de todos los profetas, y de todos los videntes, diciendo: Volveos de vuestros malos caminos, y guardad mis mandamientos, y mis ordenanzas, conforme a todas las leyes que yo mandé a vuestros padres, y que os he enviado por mano de mis siervos los profetas.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 2 Kings 17:13
Verse 13. Yet the Lord testified against Israel] What rendered their conduct the more inexcusable was, that the Lord had preserved among them a succession of prophets, who testified against their conduct, and preached repentance to them, and the readiness of God to forgive, provided they would return unto him, and give up their idolatries.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 13. Yet the Lord testified against Israel, and against Judah, by all the prophets, [and by] all the seers , etc.] Against their sins, reproving them for them, dehorting them from them, exhorting them to repent and leave them; as in all preceding reigns, by Ahijah the Shilonite, by Elijah and Elisha, by Hosea, Amos, and Micah, and others: saying, turn ye from your ways ; repent of them, and reform from them, worship of the calves particularly: and keep my commandments, and my statutes, according to all the law which I commanded your fathers ; which was given them and enjoined them at Mount Sinai: and which I sent to you by my servants the prophets ; by whom he put them in mind of them, explained them, and urged obedience to them.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 7-23 - Though the destruction of the kingdom of the ten tribes was but briefl related, it is in these verses largely commented upon, and the reason of it given. It was destruction from the Almighty: the Assyrian was but the rod of his anger, Isa 10:5. Those that bring sin into a country of family, bring a plague into it, and will have to answer for all the mischief that follows. And vast as the outward wickedness of the worl is, the secret sins, evil thoughts, desires, and purposes of mankin are much greater. There are outward sins which are marked by infamy but ingratitude, neglect, and enmity to God, and the idolatry an impiety which proceed therefrom, are far more malignant. Withou turning from every evil way, and keeping God's statutes, there can be no true godliness; but this must spring from belief of his testimony as to wrath against all ungodliness and unrighteousness, and his merc in Christ Jesus.
