16 et locutus est ei : Hæc dicit Dominus : Quia misisti nuntios ad consulendum Beelzebub deum Accaron, quasi non esset Deus in Israël, a quo posses interrogare sermonem, ideo de lectulo super quem ascendisti, non descendes, sed morte morieris.


Commentarius in hunc versum  

By Henry MacLagan

Verse 16. And thence perception, that it is according to Divine Order, that since the wicked have sought salvation from the extreme evils and falsities of faith alone which is barren and desolate; and have neglected interior good and its truth, which are peculiar to the true spiritual church; therefore they cannot separate themselves from their false doctrine, and must be entirely vastated.
