“Thus were they defiled with their own works, and went a whoring with their own inventions.”
Many times he delivered them, but they provoked him with their counsel, and were brought low by their iniquity. This verse introduces a cyclical pattern: deliverance followed by renewed rebellion and renewed judgment. God's repeated rescues ('many times') demonstrate persistent faithfulness even as Israel persists in provoking. The phrase 'brought low by their iniquity' suggests that Israel's own wickedness becomes their undoing.
