20:4 Wilt thou judge them, son of man, wilt thou judge [them]? cause {b} them to know the abominations of their fathers:
(b) This declares the great leniency and patience of God who calls sinners to repentance before he condemns them.
20:4 Wilt thou - Wilt thou not convince and reprove them? And denounce my judgments against them? The abominations - What their fathers have done, they approve, and have outdone; by that let them know what to expect.
20:1-9. Those hearts are wretchedly hardened which ask God leave to go on in sin, and that even when suffering for it; see ver.
