Ezekiel 16:28
"See therefore, I have stretched out my hand over you, and have diminished your portion, and delivered you to the will of those who hate you, the daughters of the Philistines, who are ashamed of your lewd way."
Key Reflection
This verse metaphorically describes God's judgment on Jerusalem, comparing it to a prostitute who has forsaken Him for other lovers, here represented by the Philistines. By delivering Jerusalem into the hands of those who scorn its behavior, God shows both His wrath at their transgressions and His ultimate authority over their fate.
