22 'Y en todas tus abominaciones y prostituciones no te acordaste de los días de tu juventud, cuando estabas desnuda y descubierta y revolcándote en tu sangre.

Ezequiel 16:22 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 16:22

And in all thine abominations and thy whoredoms
Or idolatries, which were abominable to God, and were many; of which that just mentioned was not one of the least: thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth;
the destitute and forlorn condition then in, and what favours were then bestowed: when thou wast naked and bare, [and] wast polluted in thy blood;
(See Gill on Ezekiel 16:6); (See Gill on Ezekiel 16:7); which is mentioned to upbraid the Jews with their ingratitude; they forgetting the miserable condition they were in in Egypt, and what great things the Lord had done for them in bringing them out from thence, and the obligations they were laid under to him: and yet, after all this, to commit such abominable iniquities, and in the midst of them all never once call to mind what they had received from him; which might have been a check to their idolatries, but so it was not.

Ezequiel 16:22 In-Context

20 'Tomaste además a tus hijos y a tus hijas que habías dado a luz para mí, y se los sacrificaste como alimento. ¿Acaso eran poca cosa tus prostituciones,
21 para que mataras a mis hijos y se los ofrecieras haciéndolos pasar por fuego?
22 'Y en todas tus abominaciones y prostituciones no te acordaste de los días de tu juventud, cuando estabas desnuda y descubierta y revolcándote en tu sangre.
23 'Y sucedió que después de toda tu maldad ("¡Ay, ay de ti!"declara el Señor DIOS)
24 te edificaste un santuario y te hiciste un lugar alto en todas las plazas.
