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 Those men will attack with great armies and with their weapons, chariots, and wagons. They will surround you with large and small shields and with helmets. And I will give them the right to punish you, and they will give you their own kind of punishment.
25 Then you will see how strong my anger can be when they punish you in their anger. They will cut off your noses and ears. They will take away your sons and daughters, and those who are left will be burned.
26 They will take off your clothes and steal your jewelry.
27 I will put a stop to the sinful life you began when you were in Egypt so that you will not desire it or remember Egypt anymore.
28 "This is what the Lord God says: You became tired of your lovers, but I am going to hand you over to those men you now hate.
