Ezekiel 11:13

"You will know that I am the LORD, for you have not walked in my statutes. You have not executed my ordinances, but have done after the ordinances of the nations that are around you.”’”"

Key Reflection

This verse highlights Israel's spiritual estrangement from God due to their failure to follow His laws and instead adhere to the practices of surrounding nations. It underscores the contrast between true faithfulness to Yahweh’s commandments and superficial compliance with external customs, emphasizing the need for genuine devotion and obedience.

From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes
