Jeremiah 2:34 (KJV)

Commentary on Jeremiah 2:34

God indicts Judah for social injustice intertwined with their religious apostasy. The 'blood of the souls of the poor innocents' likely refers to both literal violence and exploitation of the vulnerable. The phrase 'in thy skirts' suggests evidence so obvious that no investigation was needed—the guilt was openly displayed. This connects covenant unfaithfulness to its inevitable fruit: oppression of the weak. Reformed theology recognizes that true religion always manifests in justice and mercy toward the marginalized, while false religion allows or even promotes exploitation.
