Ezequiel 16:46 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 16:46

And thine elder sister [is] Samaria
The metropolis of the ten tribes; "sister" to the Jews, because of the same descent, having one and the same father; the "elder" or "greater" F24, because more in number and power; the kingdom of Israel consisted of ten tribes, and the kingdom of Judah but of two; and the ten tribes also were the first in the apostasy from the true worship of God: she and her daughters that dwell at thy left hand;
as Samaria the sister was the metropolis of the ten tribes, her daughters are the other cities and towns belonging thereunto; and so the Targum renders it, she and her villages; these were situated to the north of the land of Israel, as Judah was to the south, which with the Jews were left and right; as a man standing with his face to the east has the north on his left and the south on his right side: and thy younger sister, that dwelleth at thy right hand, [is] Sodom and
her daughters;
where Lot the kinsman of Abraham lived, and from whom sprung the Ammonites and Moabites. Sodom was a lesser kingdom than that of Judah, and which lay to the south; that is, to the right of it; even that and the other cities, which perished with it, called her daughters, as Admah, Zeboim

Ezequiel 16:46 In-Context

44 He aquí, que todo proverbista hará de ti proverbio, diciendo: Como la madre, tal su hija
45 Hija de tu madre eres tú, que desechó a su marido y a sus hijos; y hermana de tus hermanas eres tú, que desecharon a sus maridos y a sus hijos; vuestra madre fue hetea, y vuestro padre el amorreo
46 Y tu hermana mayor es Samaria con sus hijas, la cual habita a tu mano izquierda; y tu hermana la menor que tú es Sodoma con sus hijas, la cual habita a tu mano derecha
47 Y aun no anduviste en sus caminos, ni hiciste según sus abominaciones; antes, como si esto fuera poco y muy poco, antes te corrompiste más que ellas en todos tus caminos
48 Vivo yo, dijo el Señor DIOS, Sodoma tu hermana, con sus hijas, nunca hizo como hiciste tú y tus hijas
