Ezekiel 16:49 - Forerunner Commentary

Ezekiel 16:49

47 You did not walk in their ways nor act according to their abominations; but, as if that were too little, ^ayou became more corrupt than they in all your ways.

48 “As I live,” says the Lord God, “neither ^ayour sister Sodom nor her daughters have done as you and your daughters have done.

49 Look, this was the iniquity of your sister Sodom: She and her daughter had pride, ^afullness of food, and abundance of idleness; neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy.

50 And they were haughty and ^acommitted abomination before Me; therefore ^bI took them away as I saw fit.

51 “Samaria did not commit ^ahalf of your sins; but you have multiplied your abominations more than they, and ^bhave justified your sisters by all the abominations which you have done.

52 You who judged your sisters, bear your own shame also, because the sins which you committed were more abominable than theirs; they are more righteous than you. Yes, be disgraced also, and bear your own shame, because you justified your sisters.

53 ^a“When I bring back their captives, the captives of Sodom and her daughters, and the captives of Samaria and her daughters, then I will also bring back ^bthe captives of your captivity among them,

54 that you may bear your own shame and be disgraced by all that you did when ^ayou comforted them.
