Ezekiel 23:35 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 23:35

Therefore thus saith the Lord God, because thou hast forgotten
me
His word, worship, and ordinances, and did not attend unto them, but worshipped strange gods: so the Targum,

``because thou hast left my worship:''
and cast me behind thy back; or, as the same paraphrase,
``hast cast the fear of me from before thine eyes;''
or out of thy sight, his laws and statutes; see ( Nehemiah 9:26 ) ( Isaiah 5:24 ) , as men cast behind their backs that which they have no value for and loath, and which they do not care to see, and choose to forget: therefore bear thou also thy lewdness and thy whoredoms;
that is, the guilt of their sins, the punishment of their idolatries, and shame and confusion for them.

Ezekiel 23:35 In-Context

33 ebrietate et dolore repleberis calice maeroris et tristitiae calice sororis tuae Samariae
34 et bibes illum et epotabis usque ad feces et fragmenta eius devorabis et ubera tua lacerabis quia ego locutus sum ait Dominus Deus
35 propterea haec dicit Dominus Deus quia oblita es mei et proiecisti me post corpus tuum tu quoque porta scelus tuum et fornicationes tuas
36 et ait Dominus ad me dicens fili hominis numquid iudicas Oollam et Oolibam et adnuntias eis scelera earu
37 quia adulterae sunt et sanguis in manibus earum et cum idolis suis fornicatae sunt insuper et filios suos quos genuerunt mihi obtulerunt eis ad devorandum
