Ezekiel 23:26

26 And they will strip you [of] your clothes, and they will take {your splendid jewelry}.

Ezekiel 23:26 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 23:26

They shall also strip thee out of thy clothes
As such who are taken captives are usually served: and take away, thy fair jewels;
their ornaments of every kind: or "the vessels of thy glory" F3; Kimchi observes this may be meant either of the garments of the priests, and the vessels of the sanctuary; or of whole spoil of the city in general, whether in the temple, or in other houses.

Ezekiel 23:26 In-Context

24 And they will come against you [with] an army chariot and wagon and with a crowd of peoples; they will set [themselves] against you [from] all around [with] large shield and small shield and helmet. And I will give {before them} judgment, and they will judge you with their judgments.
25 And I will direct my zeal against you, and they will deal with you in anger; your nose and your ears they will remove, and {those who are left}, they will fall by the sword, and they will take your sons and your daughters, and {your remnant} will be consumed by fire.
26 And they will strip you [of] your clothes, and they will take {your splendid jewelry}.
27 And I will put an end to your obscene conduct [coming] from you and your fornication from the land of Egypt, and you will not lift your eyes to them; and you will not remember Egypt again.'
28 For thus says the Lord Yahweh: 'Look! I [am] giving you into the hand of those you hated, into the hand of those from whom you turned away.
