(17) As yet exaltest thou thyself?--Heb., Dost thou still exalt, or oppose, thyself against My people?--i.e., Art thou not tired of the contest? Dost thou still, in thy folly, continue it?

Verse 17. - As yet. Rather "still." And the whole verse should be rendered - "Dost thou still oppose thyself against my people, so as not to let them go." The verb translated "oppose" - ("exalt" in the A.V.) - is strictly "to raise a mound, or bank," thence "to obstruct," "oppose."
