Bible Comments

Behold; hear therefore, and mark, ye wicked Jews. I have smitten mine hand, in testimony of my abhorrence of your ways, as threatening to punish you, and setting on the fierce Babylonian upon you to execute my just displeasure. At thy dishonest gain; thy covetousness, the root of all the evils in thee; thy cursed, unsatiable hunger for wealth. Thy blood, which thou didst shed, that thou mightest then seize their estates; kill Naboths, and take possession.

Ezekiel 22:13

13 Behold, therefore I have smitten mine hand at thy dishonest gain which thou hast made, and at thy blood which hath been in the midst of thee.
