Ezekiel 16:36

thy filthiness The parallelism "nakedness" requires some such sense; and so the Jewish tradition. The Heb. is the ordinary word for "brass," but any reference to "hire" or money here is out of the question. Cf. Dukes, Spr. d. Mischnah, p. 37. Geiger, Urschrift, p. 392. Somewhat differently Fried. Del. in Baer, Ezek., p. xiv.
