Ezekiel 5:6 - Forerunner Commentary

Ezekiel 5:6

4 Then take some of them again and ^athrow them into the midst of the fire, and burn them in the fire. From there a fire will go out into all the house of Israel.

5 “Thus says the Lord God: ‘This is Jerusalem; I have set her in the midst of the nations and the countries all around her.

6 She has rebelled against My judgments by doing wickedness more than the nations, and against My statutes more than the countries that are all around her; for they have refused My judgments, and they have not walked in My statutes.’

7 Therefore thus says the Lord God: ‘Because you have¹ multiplied disobedience more than the nations that are all around you, have not walked in My statutes ^anor kept My judgments, nor even done according to the judgments of the nations that are all around you’—

8 therefore thus says the Lord God: ‘Indeed I, even I, am against you and will execute judgments in your midst in the sight of the nations.

9 ^aAnd I will do among you what I have never done, and the like of which I will never do again, because of all your abominations.
