Wesley's Notes for Jeremiah 26:17

26:18 Micah - This was that Micah, whose prophecies are part of holy writ, as appears by #Micah 1:1 3:12|, where are the very words of the prophecy here mentioned, the substance of whose prophecy was the same with this, that Zion should be plowed up, and the place where the temple stood, should become so desolate that trees should grow there, as in a forest.

26:19 Thus - Now, if we should take a quite contrary course, and put this man to death, we should do ourselves no good, but procure great evil against our souls; that is against ourselves.
