Ezequiel 16:24 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 16:24

[That] thou hast also built unto thee an eminent place
Or a "brothel" F11; and so the Septuagint version, "a whoring house"; not content to commit idolatry privately, they built a public place for idolatrous worship. The Targum renders it, "altar", The word has the signification of a pit or ditch; with which compare ( Proverbs 22:14 ) ( 23:27 ) ; and hast made thee an high place in every street;
of Jerusalem, and other cities; it was usual to erect high places in streets, where altars were built, and idols set up to be worshipped: it denotes the public manner in which they committed idolatry, and the multitude of their idols; which shows their impudence and hardness of heart.


FOOTNOTES:

F11 (bg) (oikhma pornikon) , Sept. "lupanar", V. L. "prostibulum", so some in Starckius.

Ezequiel 16:24 In-Context

22 E em todas as tuas abominações, e nas tuas prostituições, não te lembraste dos dias da tua mocidade, quando tu estavas nua e descoberta, e jazias no teu sangue.
23 E sucedeu, depois de toda a tua maldade (ai, ai de ti! diz o Senhor Deus),
24 que te edificaste uma câmara abobadada, e fizeste lugares altos em todas as praças.
25 A cada canto do caminho edificaste o teu lugar alto, e fizeste abominável a tua formosura, e alargaste os teus pés a todo o que passava, e multiplicaste as tuas prostituições.
26 Também te prostituíste com os egípcios, teus vizinbos, grandemente carnais; e multiplicaste a tua prostituição, para me provocares � ira.
