Study 16 From the Book of Ezekiel is: Ezekiel
23
This chapter resembles
chapter 16. Samaria and Jerusalem are condemned for their unfaithfulness in
seeking alliances with foreign nations and their gods. Their conduct is represented in unusually realistic
figures to make it appear how loathsome and repulsive it has been.
1.
What
is the main content of each of the four divisions of this chapter, namely
verses 1-10, 11-21, 22-35 and 36-49?
2.
Trace
how Jerusalem walked in the way of Samaria and even exceeded her in wickedness,
and therefore must drain to the dregs the same cup of judgment. What were the
origins of here idolatrous tendencies, both on the historical and on the
religious level (verses 8, 19, 27, 35)? What warning does this contain for
God’s people today?
