Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 13. - The people. The people of Israel, as distinct from the people of Judah. The particular judgment announced in vers. 11, 12 is clearly to fall on them. Neither do they seek the Lord of hosts. Israel had set itself to seek after Baal from the time of Ahab (1 Kings 16:31). The reform of Jehu (2 Kings 10:28) had gone but skin-deep. Baal was still "sought to," rather than Jehovah, when the final judgment came (2 Kings 17:16; Hosea 2:13).

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(13) For the people turneth not . . .--What follows was the word that was meant for all Israel. They had not "turned" to the Lord, there were no proofs of that conversion which true prophets and preachers have at all times sought after.
