Jewish Heritage Revival
One Heritage United by Messiah
Ezekiel 8:13 - 18
13 He also said to me, "You will see even worse abominations that they are doing."
14 He brought me to the entrance of the north gate to ADONAI's house; and there before me were women weeping for Tammuz.
15 "Human being," he asked me, "have you seen this? You will see practices even more disgusting than these."
16 He brought me into the inner courtyard of ADONAI's house; and there, at the entrance to the temple of ADONAI, between the porch and the altar, were about twenty-five men with their backs toward the temple of ADONAI and their faces toward the east; and they were worshipping the sun toward the east.
17 He asked me, "Human being, have you seen this? Does the house of Y'hudah consider it a casual matter that they commit the disgusting practices they are committing here, thus filling the land with violence, provoking me still more? Look! They are even putting the branch to their nose!
18 Therefore I will act in fury, my eye will not spare, I will have no pity. Even if they cry loudly right in my ears, I will not listen to them."
