Ezekiel 16b - The Selfish and Unfaithful Spouse


Ezekiel 16b - The Selfish and Unfaithful Spouse


Israel forgets the desperate and unfortunate cuircumstances of her birth, and uses all of her wealth, beauty and bounty to satisfy her own arrogance. In a chapter full of powerful sexual imagery, the prophet shows how arriogance can turn into a quest to satisfy one's own desires without regard to it's effects on anyone. Even to sacrifice one's own children, nothing will stop a person infected with his own arrogance and selfishness.
