Ezekiel 24:12

She; the nation of the Jews, and the city Jerusalem. Hath wearied; either her God, (so the French translation,) by her repeated sins, and pertinacy in them, as elsewhere, Isaiah 1:14, Isaiah 7:13 43:24; or wearied others, by injuries done against them; or, as we read it, herself, spent much time and taken great pains, laid out much treasure in making alliances for her security. With lies: her allies, their promises, their forces, and their idols, on which these unhappy Jews relied, all prove a lie to the house of Judah. Her great scum went not forth; she repented not, nor did she reform her ways. Her scum, her unrepented sins, shall be in the fire, shall be punished in the fire that burns their city.
