32 sino como mujer adúltera, que en lugar de su marido recibe a ajenos

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 ¡Cuán inconstante es tu corazón, dijo el Señor DIOS, habiendo hecho todas estas cosas, obras de una poderosa ramera

31 edificando tus altares en cabeza de todo camino, y haciendo tus altares en todas las plazas! Y no fuiste semejante a ramera, menospreciando el salario

32 sino como mujer adúltera, que en lugar de su marido recibe a ajenos

33 A todas las rameras dan dones; mas tú diste tus dones a todos tus enamorados; y les diste presentes, para que entraren a ti de todas partes por tus fornicaciones

34 Y ha sido en ti al contrario de las mujeres en tus fornicaciones, ni nunca después de ti será así fornicado; porque en dar tú dones, y no ser dados dones a ti, ha sido al contrario
