A Warning to the Unfaithful
John Calvin emphasizes that this verse is a direct warning to hypocrites within the visible community of faith. While God promises redemption for Zion, He simultaneously declares that unrepentant sinners and transgressors will be destroyed. This ensures that those who are merely religious on the outside do not falsely claim God's promises for themselves.
