Either referring to God, who saw still their wicked perjuries, and other sins which they persisted in, or rather referring to Nebuchadnezzar, and his ministers of state and war, to whose memory all the falsehood of the Jews was still kept fresh by repeated disloyalty, with reproach to God, whose oath the king and inhabitants of Jerusalem had violated. Your transgressions against God, and against the king of Babylon, whose yoke you submitted to with promised obedience. Discovered; visibly to all in court, city, and country. All your doings; public management of matters of the kingdom, and private too; you add sin to sin, and that without blushing for them, or hiding them. Because; the whole summed up for confirming the threats. Taken with the hand; as birds or beasts taken in the net, encompassed therein that they cannot get away, are taken with the hand, so shall you, and be carried into Babylon.
