Context of Psalms 78:32
30No longer a stranger from their desire, while their food was still in their mouths, 31the anger of God rose against them and slew the stoutest of them, and struck down young men of Israel. Despite all this they sinned still more, and did not trust in His wonders. 33So He ended their days in futility and their years in terror. 34But when He slew them, then they sought Him, and turned back, and desired God eagerly.

Commentaries on Psalms 78:32
- Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 32For all this they sinned still - How astonishing is this! They were neither drawn by mercies, nor awed by judgments! But we shall cease to wonder at this, if we have a thorough acquaintance with our own hearts.Read the comment
- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 32For all this they sinned still - Even this did not reclaim them, and prevent their sinning. Heavy judgments do not always restrain men from sin. Not unfrequently they take occasion from such judgments to sin the more. And believed not for his wondrous works - They did not trust in His wondrous works; or, those works did not have the effect of producing faith. See Psalm 78:22-23. The same thing occurred in the life of the Saviour. John 12:37.Read the comment
