“I have sent also unto you all my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them, saying, Return ye now every man from his evil way, and amend your doings, and go not after other gods to serve them, and ye shall dwell in the land which I have given to you and to your fathers: but ye have not inclined your ear, nor hearkened unto me.”
The summary: 'But you have not inclined your ear or listened to me. Although the Rechabites have kept the command of their father.' Israel's refusal stands in sharp contrast. Covenant fidelity is a matter of will.
