Ezekiel 23:37

"The LORD said moreover to me: “Son of man, will you judge Oholah and Oholibah? Then declare to them their abominations."

Key Reflection

In Ezekiel 23:37, the Lord commands the prophet to judge and declare the sins of two symbolic women, Oholah and Oholibah, representing the northern and southern kingdoms of Israel respectively. This divine judgment serves to reveal their spiritual adultery and idolatry, highlighting the need for repentance and the consequences of forsaking God’s covenant.
