John Gill, on Ezek 16:30
John Gill · 1697–1771
Ezek 16:30 · Douay-Rheims
“Wherein shall I cleanse thy heart, saith the Lord God: seeing thou dost all these the works of a shameless prostitute?”
On this verse:
“In that thou buildest thine eminent place in the head of every way,.... Or brothel house, as before; See Gill on Eze 16:24; which showed her to be a whore, and an imperious one: and makest thine high place in every street; See Gill on Eze 16:24; and hast not been as an harlot: a common one, or as a harlot usually is: in that thou scornest hire; which they do not; for it is for hire they prostitute themselves; and have their names, both in our language, and in the Latin tongue, from, thence.”
