KIne of Bashan] Thus he calleth the princes and governours, which being overwhelmed with great aboundance of Gods benefits, forget God, and therefore he calleth them by the name of beasts, and not of men. See Psalms 22:12. Ezekiel 39:18. which say to their masters] They encourage such as have authoritie over the people, to poll them, so that they may have profit by it. Others, which do perswade your kings and princes to all manner of excsse and dissolutenesse: and are teachers and advisers of the disorders of the court; as Hosea 7:5.
