Ezekiel 20:10-26
20:23 a Because of Israel’s history of refusing to keep the Lord’s decrees or obey his regulations, God determined to scatter them among all the nations.Summary for Ezek 20:25-26: 20:25-26 b I gave them over to worthless decrees and regulations ... I let them pollute themselves: The Lord allowed the people of Israel to exercise their depravity in the complex and corrupting rituals of paganism and to suffer all of its terrible consequences (see Rom 1:18-25 c).
20:26 d The Israelites even gave their firstborn children as offerings to the god Molech. This exactly reversed the Exodus, which freed the Israelites, the Lord’s “firstborn son” (Exod 4:22 e), to offer pure worship in the Promised Land.
