Ezekiel 23 - Day 810 (link to reading)
Scripture: Ezekiel 23:11-21 Commentary (melissabeaty.com): In this chapter, God compares the northern kingdom of Israel and the southern kingdom of Judah as two sisters. Israel was the younger for it broke away from Judah (I Ki. 12:16-19). The younger was punished for her sins of idolatry by being overrun by Assyria and carried away captive (II Ki. 17:1-18). Instead of learning from Israel’s punishment, Judah continued in her sins. Judah could not recognize God’s judgment on her sister and therefore could not fear that same judgment on herself. Application: For whatever reason, some people need to experience life and its consequences for themselves. Sadly, many never recover from their tragic choices and defiantly continue down their path of self-destruction. Like a hurt parent, God weeps for their soul. Prayer: Lord have mercy on me a sinner...
