‏ Ezekiel 20:25-26

Summary for Ezek 20:25-26: 20:25-26 ^a 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 ^b).
20:26 ^c 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 ^d), to offer pure worship in the Promised Land.
