This may be taken as showing us, 1. The marks of a wicked man. He that
has a high look and a proud heart, that carries himself insolently and
scornfully towards both God and man, and that is always ploughing and
plotting, designing and devising some mischief or other, is indeed a
wicked man. The light of the wicked is sin. Sin is the pride, the
ambition, the glory and joy, and the business of wicked men. 2. The
miseries of wicked man. His raised expectations, his high designs, and
most elaborate contrivances and projects, are sin to him; he contracts
guilt in them and so prepares trouble for himself. The very business of
all wicked men, as well as their pleasure, is nothing but sin; so
Bishop Patrick. They do all to serve their lusts, and have no regard to
the glory of God in it, and therefore their ploughing is sin, and no
marvel when their sacrificing is so, ch. xv. 8.
