2I haue spread out my hands all the day vnto a rebellious people, which walketh in a way that was not good, after their owne thoughts: 3A people that prouoketh mee to anger continually to my face, that sacrificeth in gardens, and burneth incense vpon altars of bricke: 4Which remaine among the graues, and lodge in the monuments, which eate swines flesh, and broth of abominable things is in their vessels: 5Which say; Stand by thy selfe, come not neere to me; for I am holier then thou: these are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burneth all the day. 6Behold, it is written before me: I will not keepe silence, but will recompence, euen recompence into their bosome,

Wesley's Notes for Isaiah 65:4
65:4 Remain - They remained among the graves, there consulting with devils, who were thought to delight in such places; or to practice necromancy, all which were forbidden, #Deut 18:11 Isa 8:19|. Monuments - Some interpret it of idol temples, some of caves and dens, in which the Heathens used to worship their idols. Broth of abominable things - Of such flesh as was to the Jews unclean by the law.
