Ezekiel 24:12 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

She hath wearied herself with lies, and her great scum went not forth out of her: her scum shall be in the fire.

She hath wearied herself with lies - "herself," rather, 'she hath wearied me out with lies;' or rather, 'with vain labours' on my part to purify her, without being obliged to have recourse to judgments (cf. Isaiah 43:24; Malachi 2:17). (Maurer.) However, the English version gives a good sense (cf. Isaiah 47:13; Isaiah 57:10).
