Contextual Overview

20 Wisdom, in the open place, soundeth forth, in the broadways, she raiseth her voice; 21 At the head of bustling streets, she crieth aloud, - at the openings of the gates in the city - her sayings, she doth utter: - 22 How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and, scoffers, in scoffing, delight them? and, dullards, hate knowledge? 23 Will ye turn, at my reproof? Lo! I will pour out to you my spirit, I will make known my words to you. 24 Because I called, and ye refused, I stretched out my hand, and no one regarded; 25 But ye dismissed all my counsel, and, to my rebuke, would not yield, 26 I also, at your calamity, will laugh, I will mock, when cometh your dread; 27 When cometh as a crashing your dread, and, your calamity, as a storm-wind, overtaketh, when there come upon you, distress and anguish. 28 Then, will they call me, but I will not answer, they will seek me diligently, but shall not find me. 29 Because they hated knowledge, and, the reverence of Yahweh, did not choose;

Gill's Notes on the Bible

They would none of my counsel,.... Neither his doctrines nor his ordinances; nor would they attend to the wholesome counsel and advice he gave them in his sermons upon the mount, and in other discourses of his at other times and places;

they despised all my reproof; for their hypocrisy, uncleanness, covetousness, and other sins they were addicted to; see Matthew 23:1; but they "derided" him for it, Luke 16:14; where the same word is used as is by the Septuagint here. These things are repeated from Proverbs 1:25, to observe their ingratitude, and how just was their ruin, and what the true cause of it.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

This is no arbitrary sentence. The fault was all along their own. The fruit of their own ways is death.
