Lange's Commentary on the Holy Scriptures: Critical, Doctrinal and Homiletical - Ezekiel 16:1-63

5. The Story of the Lewd Adulteress (Ezekiel 16:0.)1And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying, 2Son of man, cause Jeru salem to know her abominations; 3And say, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah unto Jerusalem: Thy origin [extraction] and thy birth is of the land of the Canaanite; 4thy father was the Amorite, and thy mother a Hittite. And [as regards] thy birth, in the day that thou wast born, thy navel was not cut, neither wast thou washed with water for cleansing; and thou wast not rubbed with... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Ezekiel 16:1-63

The second figure was that of the adulteress, and this the prophet wrought out at great length. Jerusalem was arraigned on account of her abominations, which were described under the figure of that spiritual adultery and harlotry which Hosea had so graphically and powerfully set forth. Ezekiel traced the whole history of the city. Her origin was of the land of the Canaanite, an Amorite her father, and a Hittite her mother. She was an abandoned child, born and forsaken. In this condition of... read more

Wells of Living Water Commentary - Ezekiel 16:1-17

A Story of Redemption Ezekiel 16:1-17 INTRODUCTORY WORDS We want to bring before you the natural inheritance of all men; that is, we want to discuss what we were by nature, before grace found us. 1. We were sinners by nature. "In sin did my mother conceive me," is still true. Indeed, the words describe every son born of the Adamic race. By one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin. There is no use to cavil about it. All are sinners by nature. The heart is deceitful above all... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 16:15

Israel’s Base Response to the Goodness of Yahweh. “But you trusted in your beauty, and played the prostitute because of your renown, and poured out your whoredoms on all who passed by. His it was.” The beauty and renown that God had given them proved their downfall. It led to disobedience and idolatry. We only have to think of the effect on Solomon of his foreign wives, all the result of his splendour (1 Kings 11:1-3). They inveigled him into idolatry (1 Kings 11:4-6). And what the king did... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Ezekiel 16:15

Hear, O heavens, and be astonished at the complaint God doth make against this unthankful, forgetful, and perfidious woman! Thou didst trust; grew proud, laid aside humility, which became one raised from a most abject state, cast off the modesty, chastity, and fidelity which became a wife. Thine own beauty; it was not her own, but put upon her; she owed it to the love, bounty, and care of God; but, forgetting this, she accounts it her own, and then disposeth of it as she lists. Playedst the... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Ezekiel 16:15-34

ISRAEL’S APOSTACY FROM GOD (Ezekiel 16:15-34)EXEGETICAL NOTES. Its origin and nature (Ezekiel 16:15-22); its magnitude and extent (Ezekiel 16:23-34).Ezekiel 16:15. The apostacy of Israel is described under the image of whoredom and adultery. “Thou didst trust in thine own beauty.” The gifts of God, when they ceased to be recognised as such, became a snare. Israel prostituted them in the service of idolatry. Because of thy renown. “Teaching that the Jews had employed the renown, which through... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 16:1-63

Shall we turn in our Bibles at this time to the sixteenth chapter of Ezekiel. The prophecy of Ezekiel, chapter 16.Ezekiel declares,Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, Son of man, cause Jerusalem to know her abominations ( Ezekiel 16:1-2 ),So God is speaking out against Jerusalem. But, of course, a city is always made up of inhabitants. A city as itself is not good or evil. It all depends on what the people are that live within that city. So it is against those who are inhabiting... read more

Joseph Sutcliffe

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Ezekiel 16:1-63

Ezekiel 16:3 . Thy father was an Amorite, and thy mother a Hittite, a Chittith, a family of immodesty. The Israelites gloried in their descent from the holy patriarchs, heirs of the promises; but their moral descent was from the Chetim. All nations, as the Chaldeans, the Hebrews, and the Goths, boasted of a descent from God. Our Saxon chiefs always trace their genealogy up by a leap to Odin. Poole, after Sanctius, quotes the keen reproaches of queen Dido of Carthage against Æneas, who had... read more

But thou didst trust in thine own beauty. ] Thou grewest proud of it, and thoughtest there was none such; whenas thou mightest well have said of it, as he in the holy history did of his hatchet, "Alas, master, it was but borrowed." And playedst the harlot. ] Being fair and foolish. “ Lis est cum forma magna... read more
