What does Ezekiel 22:2-6 mean? Commentary, explanation and study verse by verse.
Now, thou son of man, wilt thou judge,a wilt thou judge the bloody city? yea, thou shalt shew her all her abominations.
Then say thou, Thus saith the Lord GOD, The city sheddeth blood in the midst of it, that her time may come, and maketh idols against herself to defile herself.
Thou art become guilty in thy blood that thou hast shed; and hast defiled thyself in thine idols which thou hast made; and thou hast caused thy days to draw near, and art come even unto thy years: therefore have I made thee a reproach unto the heathen, and a mocking to all countries.
Those that be near, and those that be far from thee, shall mock thee, which art infamousb and much vexed.
Behold, the princes of Israel, every one were in thee to their powerc to shed blood.
