Isaiah 1:5. Why should ye be stricken any more? ye will revolt more and more: the whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint.
One of God’s ways of bringing people to himself is by chastisement sad affliction. He had tried that method upon Judah; he had used his rod so long that, at last, he exclaimed, "Why should ye be stricken any more?" What is the good of my sending any more affliction upon you? "Now, whenever the rod is of no more use, there will be a sharper instrument to follow. When men can no longer be chastened for their good, the axe of execution is ready to be brought forth. What a sorrowful description is here given of the people of Judah and their land!
