35:11 Therefore, [as] I live, saith the Lord GOD, I will even do according to thy {g} anger, and according to thy envy which thou hast used out of thy hatred against them; and I will make myself known among {h} them, when I have judged thee.

(g) As you have done cruelly, so will you be cruelly handled.

(h) Showing that when God punishes the enemies, the godly ought to consider that he has a care over them and so praise his name: and also that the wicked rage as though there were no God, till they feel his hand to their destruction.

35:11 Judged - Punished thee.

35:10-15 When we see the vanity of the world in the disappointments, losses, and crosses, which others meet with, instead of showing ourselves greedy of worldly things, we should sit more loose to them. In the multitude of words, not one is unknown to God; not the most idle word; and the most daring is not above his rebuke. In the destruction of the enemies of the church, God designs his own glory; and we may be sure that he will not come short of his design. And when the fulness of the Jews and Gentiles shall come into the church, all antichristian opposers shall be destroyed.
