Isaiah 43:28

I have profaned the princes of the sanctuary "Thy princes have profaned my sanctuary" - Instead of vaachallel sarey , read vayechalelu sareycha . So the Syriac and Septuagint, ̔ ̔ , "the rulers have defiled my holy things." kodshi , Houbigant. ̔ , "thy rulers, "MSS. Pachom. and 1. D. 2 and Marchal.

To reproaches "To reproach" - ligeduphah , in the singular number; so an ancient MS. and the Septuagint, Syriac, and Vulgate. And, alas! what a curse do they still bear, and what reproach do they still suffer! No national crimes have ever equalled those of the Jewish nation, for no nation ever had such privileges to neglect, despise, sin against. When shall this severity of God towards this people have an end? Answ. Whenever, with one heart, they turn to him, and receive the doctrine of the Lord Jesus; and not till then.
