Ezequiel 16:32 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 16:32

[But as] a wife that committeth adultery
Who has a husband, and is provided for with all the necessaries of life, with food and clothing; and so has no need to prostitute herself for a livelihood, as common strumpets do; but does it purely for the satiating of her lust: and such were the people of the Jews, they were married to the Lord, who took care of them, and provided everything for them, and acted the part of a husband to them; so that it was the weakness of their hearts, and the strength of their corruptions, which led them to depart from him, and commit idolatry; which in them was adultery, while the sin of the Gentiles was as simple fornication: [which] taketh strangers instead of her husband;
that takes other men into her bed instead of her husband, not for the sake of gain, but lust; and this was the case of the Jews, who were a wicked people, an idolatrous generation; who took strange gods to worship instead of the true God, who had been a husband to them, ( Jeremiah 31:32 ) .

Ezequiel 16:32 In-Context

30 Quão fraco é teu coração, diz o Senhor Deus, fazendo tu todas estas coisas, obra duma meretriz desenfreada,
31 edificando a tua câmara abobadada no canto de cada caminho, e fazendo o teu lugar alto em cada rua! Não foste sequer como a meretriz, pois desprezaste a paga;
32 tens sido como a mulher adúltera que, em lugar de seu marido, recebe os estranhos.
33 A todas as meretrizes se dá a sua paga, mas tu dás presentes a todos es teus amantes; e lhes dás peitas, para que venham a ti de todas as partes, pelas tuas prostituições.
34 Assim és diferente de outras mulheres nas tuas prostituições; pois ninguém te procura para prostituição; pelo contrário tu dás a paga, e não a recebes; assim és diferente.
