“Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:”
They have no understanding, no fidelity, no love, no mercy. The final entries of the vice catalogue highlight the absence of virtues: no understanding, faithfulness, love, or mercy. These negations reveal the impoverishment of character that results from idolatry and rebellion. The human heart, turned away from God, becomes incapable of the virtues that bind community together.
