Ezekiel 20:1 - Forerunner Commentary

Ezekiel 20:1

The Rebellions of Israel

1 It came to pass in the seventh year, in the fifth month, on the tenth day of the month, that ^acertain of the elders of Israel came to inquire of the Lord, and sat before me.

2 Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

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.’
