Ezekiel 16:50
"“‘“Behold, this was the iniquity of your sister Sodom: pride, fullness of bread, and prosperous ease was in her and in her daughters. She also didn’t strengthen the hand of the poor and needy."
Key Reflection
This verse portrays Sodom's downfall as rooted in spiritual complacency and自私。虽然拥有丰富的物质生活,但Sodom未能帮助贫穷和需要的人,这种忽视贫苦的罪孽显示了内心的骄傲与自满,最终导致其毁灭。这样的描述提醒人们,即使在丰裕中也不应忘记怜悯和支持弱势群体的重要性。
