5:5“This is what the sovereign Lord says: This is Jerusalem; I placed her in the center of the nations with countries all around her. 5:6Then she defied my regulations and my statutes, becoming more wicked than the nations6 and the countries around her.7 Indeed, they8 have rejected my regulations, and they do not follow my statutes.
Footnotes
- 6 The nations are subject to a natural law according to Gen 9; see also Amos 1:3–2:3; Jonah 1:2.
- 7 Heb “she defied my laws, becoming wicked more than the nations, and [she defied] my statutes [becoming wicked] more than the countries around her.”
- 8 One might conclude that the subject of the plural verbs is the nations/countries, but the context (vv. 5–6a) indicates that the people of Jerusalem are in view. The text shifts from using the feminine singular (referring to personified Jerusalem) to the plural (referring to Jerusalem’s residents). See L. C. Allen, Ezekiel (), 1:3.
