EXPLANATION

Verse 9. Ever. Hebrew adds, “is his word ineffectual?” which the Vat. Septuagint neglects, (Bert.) though gamar omer be thus rendered in other editions. “Has he completely fulfilled his word,” which may be the true sense, consumabitur verbum. Saint Jerome Bible.—“Will he execute this threat from generation?” and so forth Calmet.—God will never abandon his Church, ( Worthington.) though he may chastise his people. Bible.
