That it may become hot and its bronze may burn,
That aits filthiness may be melted in it,
That its scum may be consumed.
And her great scum has not gone from her.
Let her scum be in the fire!
Because I have cleansed you, and you were not cleansed,
You will bnot be cleansed of your filthiness anymore,
cTill I have caused My fury to rest upon you.
bIt shall come to pass, and I will do it;
I will not hold back,
cNor will I spare,
Nor will I relent;
According to your ways
And according to your deeds
1They will judge you,”
Says the Lord God.’ ”

Ezekiel 24:13
In thy filthiness is lewdness - zimmah , a word that denominates the worst kinds of impurity; adultery, incest, etc., and the purpose, wish, design, and ardent desire to do these things. Hers were not accidental sins, they were abominations by design, and they were the worse in her, because God had cleansed her, had separated the Israelites from idolatry and idolatrous nations, and by his institutions removed from them all idolatrous incentives. But they formed alliances with the heathen, and adopted all their abominations; therefore God would not spare them. See Ezekiel 24:14.
