24 porque não haviam executado as minhas ordenanças, mas rejeitaram os meus estatutos, e profanaram os meus sábados, e os seus olhos se iam após os ídolos de seus pais.

Ezequiel 20:24 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 20:24

Because they had not executed my judgments
Had not done that which was right and just, as the Lord commanded them: but had despised my statutes, and had polluted my sabbaths;
as their fathers had done: and their eyes were after their fathers' idols;
which they had learned to serve in Egypt, or brought with them from thence; these the eyes and the hearts of their children were after, as theirs find been; and they were more desirous, encouraged, and emboldened to serve them, because they were their fathers'; but this would not excuse their sin; yea, it was rather an aggravation of it, that they should follow them in such practices, for which they had been often reproved and punished.

Ezequiel 20:24 In-Context

22 Todavia retive a minha mão, e procedi por amor do meu nome, para que não fosse profanado � vista das nações, a cujos olhos os fiz sair.

23 Também levantei a minha mão para eles no deserto, jurando que os espalharia entre as nações, e os dispersaria entre os países;

24 porque não haviam executado as minhas ordenanças, mas rejeitaram os meus estatutos, e profanaram os meus sábados, e os seus olhos se iam após os ídolos de seus pais.

25 Também lhes dei estatutos que não eram bons, e ordenanças pelas quais não poderiam viver;

26 e os deixei contaminar-se em seus próprios dons, nos quais faziam passar pelo fogo todos os que abrem a madre, para os assolar, a fim de que soubessem que eu sou o Senhor.
