Ezequiel 16:45

45 Tú eres igual a tu madre, que despreció a su marido y a sus hijos; eres igual a tus hermanas, que despreciaron a sus maridos y a sus hijos. La madre de ustedes era hitita, y su padre, amorreo.

Ezequiel 16:45 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 16:45

Thou [art] thy mother's daughter
Exactly like her; they that have known the one must know the other. The Targum is,

``wherefore art thou become the daughter of the land of Canaan, to do according to the works of the people?''
that loatheth her husband and her children;
a true character of an adulteress; and which agrees both with the mother the Canaanites, and with the daughter the Jews; who both despised, rejected, and forsook God their husband, Creator, and lawgiver, and sacrificed their children to idols; see ( Ezekiel 16:20 Ezekiel 16:21 ) ( Leviticus 18:21 Leviticus 18:24 ) ; and thou [art] the sister of thy sisters;
the true genuine sister of them, Samaria and Sodom after mentioned; being not only allied to them in blood, more nearly to the one more remotely to the other, but exceedingly alike in manners, religion, and worship: which loatheth their husbands and their children;
as before: your mother [was] an Hittite, and your father an Amorite;
these the Israelites succeeded in their land, and followed their customs; (See Gill on Ezekiel 16:3). The Targum is,
``was not your mother Sarah among the Hittites? and she did not do according to their works; and your father Abraham was among the Amorites, and he walked not in their counsels.''

Ezequiel 16:45 In-Context

43 Yo te hago responsable de tu conducta por haberte olvidado de los días de tu infancia, por haberme irritado con todas estas cosas, y por haber agregado infamia a tus prácticas repugnantes. Lo afirma el SEÑOR.
44 »”Los que acostumbran citar refranes, dirán esto de ti: ‘De tal palo, tal astilla’.
45 Tú eres igual a tu madre, que despreció a su marido y a sus hijos; eres igual a tus hermanas, que despreciaron a sus maridos y a sus hijos. La madre de ustedes era hitita, y su padre, amorreo.
46 Tu hermana mayor es Samaria, ubicada al norte de ti con sus aldeas. Tu hermana menor es Sodoma, ubicada al sur de ti con sus aldeas.
47 No solo has seguido su conducta, sino que has actuado según sus prácticas repugnantes. En poco tiempo llegaste a ser peor que ellas.
