Also will ich deiner Schandtat und deiner Hurerei von Ägyptenland her ein Ende machen, daß du deine Augen nicht mehr nach ihnen wendest und hinfort nicht mehr an Ägyptenland gedenkest.
Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
will I: Ezekiel 16:41, Ezekiel 22:15, Isaiah 27:9, Micah 5:10-14, Zechariah 13:2
and thy: Ezekiel 23:3, Ezekiel 23:19
so that: These severe judgments shall effectually deter you from idolatry, and make you abhor the least approaches to it. This often repeated prediction has received a most wonderful accomplishment. For neither the authority, frowns, examples, or favour of their conquerors or powerful neighbours, nor their own fears, hopes, interests, or predilection for the sensual worship of idols, could prevail with them to run into gross idolatry, either during the captivity, or ever afterwards, to the present day, a period of 2,414 years.
Reciprocal: Numbers 17:5 - I will Deuteronomy 12:31 - even their sons Jeremiah 13:22 - skirts Ezekiel 23:48 - I cause Ezekiel 24:11 - that the filthiness
Gill's Notes on the Bible
Thus will I make thy lewdness to cease from thee,.... That is, their idolatry; for, after this captivity, the Jews never were guilty of idolatry any more:
and thy whoredom brought from the land of Egypt; the idolatry which they learned there, and brought from thence; so the Targum,
"the worship of thine idols, which was with thee when thou wast in the land of Egypt:''
so that thou shall not lift up thine eyes unto them; to the idols of Egypt, to pray unto them, and worship them:
nor remember Egypt any more; with any delight and pleasure, and so as to desire an alliance with them, and help from them, or to join with them in their idolatries: so the Targum,
"and the idols of the Egyptians thou shalt remember no more.''
