Ezekiel 20:5 - Forerunner Commentary

Ezekiel 20:5

3 “Son of man, speak to the elders of Israel, and say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “Have you come to inquire of Me? As I live,” says the Lord God, ^a“I will not be inquired of by you.” ’

4 Will you judge them, son of man, will you judge them? Then ^amake known to them the abominations of their fathers.

5 “Say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “On the day when ^aI chose Israel and raised My hand in an oath to the descendants of the house of Jacob, and made Myself ^bknown to them in the land of Egypt, I raised My hand in an oath to them, saying, ^c‘I am the Lord your God.’

6 On that day I raised My hand in an oath to them, ^ato bring them out of the land of Egypt into a land that I had searched out for them, ^b‘flowing with milk and honey,’ ^cthe glory of all lands.

7 Then I said to them, ‘Each of you, ^athrow away ^bthe abominations which are before his eyes, and do not defile yourselves with ^cthe idols of Egypt. I am the Lord your God.’

8 But they rebelled against Me and would not¹ obey Me. They did not all cast away the abominations which were before their eyes, nor did they forsake the idols of Egypt. Then I said, ‘I will ^apour out My fury on them and fulfill My anger against them in the midst of the land of Egypt.’
