### [Read the passage.](https://biblia.com/bible/esv/Ezekiel23.22-49)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
After the case has been made against Oholibah, the judgements are pronounced.
|
||||||
|
The same fate that befell her sister is given to her, namely that her lovers
|
||||||
|
turn against her and destroy her beauty. In this way the Lord will put an end
|
||||||
|
to the detestable deeds she had done with them. The same cup of judgement that
|
||||||
|
Samaria drank will be given to Jerusalem in full measure, so that even the
|
||||||
|
dregs and drops left on the shards of the cup will be drunk. She has forgotten
|
||||||
|
the Lord and His holiness, and now must endure the consequences.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Again, the Lord reiterates the sins of Israel, and has Ezekiel declare them to
|
||||||
|
the people. Idolatry, including child sacrifice. Adultery with foreign
|
||||||
|
officials, and feasts celebrating their iniquity. Righteous men will pass
|
||||||
|
judgement on her like an adulteress or murderess. The terror that will befall
|
||||||
|
is to become a watchword and a warning, so that everyone knows not to do these
|
||||||
|
things.
|
||||||

Make us holy as You are holy.
