The remainder, however, of the verses seem to relate to the Israelites after they were carried captive. They still persevered in idolatry and disobedience; and not being purified, were left to be consumed in the furnace. It is said that the Israelites "did not fear the Lord," yet the heathens, who followed their example, are said "to have feared the Lord." The Israelites did not so much as fear the wrath of Almighty God; but, on the other hand, the poor pagans feared the power of his wrath, and to avert it paid some ignorant worship, according to the wretched instructions given them. As this was an external acknowledgment of his power and Godhead, and a homage paid to him, he was pleased in consequence to withdraw his judgments from them. - ScottReciprocal Exodus 20:23 - General; Judges 6:10 - fear not; 2 Kings 17:34 - fear not; 2 Corinthians 6:16 - what; James 1:8 - General Verse 34 fear not 2 Kings 17:25, 17:27, 17:28, 17:33 whom he named Israel Genesis 32:28, 33:20, 35:10; 1 Kings 11:31, 18:11; Isaiah 48:1 Reciprocal 1 Kings 18:31 - saying; 2 Kings 17:40 - but they did; 2 Chronicles 11:3 - to all Israel; Micah 4:5 - all; Matthew 6:24 - serve; Romans 11:8 - unto this day; 2 Corinthians 6:16 - what Verse 35 With whom 2 Kings 17:15; Exodus 19:5, 19:6, 24:6-8; Deuteronomy 29:10-15; Jeremiah 31:31-34; Habakkuk 3:1-8:13 charged them Exodus 20:4, 20:5, 34:12-17; Deuteronomy 4:23-27, 13:1-18; Joshua 23:7, 23:16 fear other gods Judges 6:10; Jeremiah 10:5 Reciprocal 2 Kings 5:18 - and I bow; 17:7 - and had feared; 17:37 - and ye shall not; Jeremiah 25:6 - General Verse 36 a stretched Exodus 6:6, 9:15; Deuteronomy 5:15; Jeremiah 32:21; Acts 4:30 him shall ye fear Leviticus 19:32; Deuteronomy 6:13, 10:20, 12:5, 12:6, 12:11, 12:12; Matthew 10:28; Revelation 15:4 Reciprocal 1 Kings 8:42 - thy strong hand; 2 Kings 17:39 - the Lord; Revelation 19:10 - worship; 22:9 - worship God Verse 37 the statutes Leviticus 19:37; Deuteronomy 4:44, 4:45, 5:31-33, 6:1, 6:2, 12:32; 1 Chronicles 29:19; Psalm 19:8-11; 105:44, 105:45 wrote for you Deuteronomy 31:9, 31:11; Nehemiah 9:13, 9:14 and ye shall not 2 Kings 17:35
