玛拉基书 2:11 CUVS

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Malachi 2:10-17

Corrupt practices are the genuine fruit and product of corrupt principles; and the badness of men's hearts and lives is owing to some loose atheistical notions which they have got and which they govern themselves by. Now, in these verses, we have an instance of this; we here find men dealing falsely with one another, and it is because they think falsely of their God. Observe, I. How corrupt their practices were. In general, they dealt treacherously every man against his brother, Mal. 2:10. It... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Malachi 2:11

Judah hath dealt treacherously ,.... Not only every man against his brother, by being partial in the law; or against the women of their nation, by marrying others; or against their wives, by putting them away; but against Christ the Son of God by betraying and delivering him up into the hands of the Gentiles, to be mocked, and scourged, and crucified: and an abomination is committed in Israel, and in Jerusalem ; which was the taking of the true Messiah with wicked hands, condemning him... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Malachi 2:11

Verse 11 The Prophet now explains how the Jews departed from the covenant of their fathers, and he exaggerates their sin and says, that abomination was done in Israel; as though he had said, that this perfidy was abominable. Some render the verb, בגד, begad, (227) transgressed, and so it is often taken in Hebrew: but as in the last verse the Prophet had said, נבגד, nubegad, “Why do we deal perfidiously every one with his brother?” I doubt not but that it is repeated here in the same sense. But... read more

One Father. "Have we not all one Father," etc..? "This section," says Keil, "does not stand in any close connection with the preceding one. It does not furnish an example of the stumbling upon the Law mentioned in Malachi 2:8 ; nor of the violation of the covenant of the fathers ( Malachi 2:10 ); or of the marriage covenant ( Malachi 2:14 ), appended to the neutralizing of the covenant of Levi on the part of the priests ( Malachi 2:8 and Malachi 2:4 ). For there is no indication... read more

The sin of conjugal unfaithfulness. We here use the term "unfaithfulness" in its widest sense, extending far beyond the sin of unchastity. We note— I. UNFAITHFULNESS TO GOD IS THE ROOT SIN OF ALL OTHER FORMS OF INFIDELITY . The sins denounced in the earlier verses of this book are quite sufficient to account for the criminality here exposed. Those who profane the "covenant" and the "holiness" of God in their hearts, and who do not seek "to give glory" to his... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Malachi 2:11

Judah , the whole nation, is guilty of this crime, has broken her promised faith. The special sin, mixed marriages, is named at the end of the verse. In Israel and in Jerusalem. The mention of Israel, the sacred covenant name, is meant to make the contrast between profession and practice more marked. But some critics would hero cancel the word "Israel," as being a clerical error (see note, Zechariah 1:19 ). Jerusalem is named as the centre of the theocracy, which gave its tone to... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Malachi 2:11

Worship spoiled by the tears of the injured. The divorced and abandoned wives went to the courts of the temple "with tears, with weeping, and with crying." "Their wail of lamentation mingled with the prayers and hymns of the sacrificing priests. How could the Lord 'regard the offering any more, or accept it at their hands,' when attended by such accompaniments?" The point forced on attention is this: Here were men bringing their sacrifices, and offering their prayers for God's blessing.... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Malachi 2:11

Treacherously has Judah dealt; an abomination is committed in Israel - The prophet, by the order of the words, emphasizes the “treachery” and the “abomination.” This have they done; the very contrary to what was required of them as the people of God. He calls the remnant of Judah by the sacred name of the whole people, of whom they were the surviving representatives. The word “abomination” is a word belonging to the Hebrew, and is used especially of things offensive to, or separating from,... read more
