Ezekiel 16:2 meaning and explanation

“Son of man, confront Jerusalem with her abominations

Ezekiel 16:2, Berean Standard Bible

Explanation preview

God speaks to Ezekiel, a prophet among the exiles in Babylon, and calls him “son of man,” a title emphasizing his human standing before God. The command is to confront Jerusalem, the covenant city, with her abominations, the same word the chapter then fills out through the extended image of an abandoned infant rescued, adorned and wedded by God, who then turns to other lovers.
