In thee have they set light by father and mother: in the midst of thee have they dealt by oppression with the stranger: in thee have they vexed the fatherless and the widow.
In thee have they set light by father and mother - children have made light (disrespected) father and mother (Deuteronomy 27:16), to which passage allusion here is made. From Ezekiel 22:7 to Ezekiel 22:12 are enumerated the sins committed in violation of Moses' law.
