| Jeremiah 7:10
| And you have come, and stood before me in this house, in which my name is called upon, and have said: We are delivered, because we have done all these abominations.
| Because. Hebrew also, "although," (Sa; Grotius) "to perform," (Chaldean; Montanus) or "by doing." God must surely approve of our conduct, since we are unmolested. (St. Thomas Aquinas; Lyranus) --- But the Vulgate seems preferable, and the people attribute their success to idols, Jeremias 44:17., and 2 Paralipomenon 28:23.
