\n.<\/span>The figure is so called, because the speaker or writer repels something,
\nand spurns it as absurd or wicked.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n.<\/span>The Latins called it REJECTIO, a rejecting<\/i> or rejection<\/i>; DETESTATIO,
\na detesting<\/i> or detestation<\/i>:
\nand ABOMINATIO, an abominating<\/i> or abomination<\/i>. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n.<\/span>Psa. 50:16\u2014\u201cBut unto the wicked God saith, What hast thou to do to declare my statutes, or that thou shouldest take my covenant in thy mouth?\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Isa. 1:12-15 is a solemn expression of Jehovah’s detestation of religion, per se<\/i>,
\nsuch as existed among, and was manifested by, the Jews at Christ’s first coming.
\nThis passage describes the most minute attention to every religious observance,
\nwhich only heightens the indignation with which the Lord repudiates it all,
\nbecause it does not proceed from the heart.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n .<\/span>See this passage also under Ellipsis<\/a><\/i>, Anthropopatheia<\/i>, Synathr\u0153smos<\/i>, and Hypotyposis<\/i>.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

.<\/span>Jer. 9:2\u2014We have Jeremiah’s detestation of Israel’s idolatry.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

.<\/span>Matt. 4:10\u2014\u201cGet thee hence, Satan:\u201d etc<\/i>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

.<\/span>Matt. 16:23\u2014\u201cHe . . . said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan:
\nthou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God.\u201d
\nThe fact of this repulsion following so closely upon the other words addressed to
\nPeter in verses 17, 18, should have for ever precluded the Romish perversion of them.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

.<\/span>Acts 8:20-23\u2014Peter repels with horror the thought of Simon Magus that the gift of the Holy Ghost could be purchased with money.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
