Respond to concern sister comments. This is what this means [18] And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Woe to the women that sew pillows to all armholes, and make kerchiefs upon the head of every stature to hunt souls! Will ye hunt the souls of my people, and will ye save the souls alive that come unto you?
Sew pillows � A figurative speech, expressing the security, which they promised to every one that came to them.
Kerchiefs � Triumphal caps, which were made by these prophetesses, and put upon the head of every who one consulted them, and by these they were to interpret, as a promise of victory over the Babylonians.
Stature � That is, of every age, whether younger or elder, which usually is seen by their stature.
To hunt � All this is really spreading a net, as hunters do, to catch the prey.
Will ye save � Can you preserve them alive, whom you deceive by your promises?
