The nation was charged with having committed two evils which were figuratively described. First of all, they had forsaken Jehovah, "the fountain of living waters." Secondly, they had "hewed them out cisterns" which turned out to be "broken cisterns." Matthew Henry offered this comment - "But it may well be urged, to the reproach of Israel, that they, who were the only people that had no cause to change their God, were yet the only people that had changed Him." Have you forsaken JESUS - "the fountain of living waters"?
