TSNTyndale Study Notes:

16:1-63 Jerusalem is exposed as a wanton prostitute. Even in the relatively mild form of the English translation, ch 16 is hard to read, and it was at least as shocking in the ancient context. Ezekiel was graphically communicating the full ugliness and offensiveness of Judah’s sin. He refused to be polite when discussing his people’s depravity. In fact, his refusal to tone down the offensiveness of Jerusalem’s sin is precisely the point of the passage. The offensive nature of the portrayal was critical to its effectiveness because Ezekiel’s hearers could understand that God’s awful judgment upon them was justified only if they first understood the magnitude of their sin in his sight. A less graphic presentation would not have adequately communicated this message.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

(Occurrence 0) male figures

(Some words not found in UHB: and,took vessels_of beautiful,your made_of,gold,my and,of,silver,my which/who I_give to/for=you(fs) and,made to/for=you(fs) images male and,played_the_whore in/on/at/with,them )

Alternate translation: “statues of men” or “idols that look like men”

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / euphemism

(Occurrence 0) you did with them as a prostitute would do

(Some words not found in UHB: and,took vessels_of beautiful,your made_of,gold,my and,of,silver,my which/who I_give to/for=you(fs) and,made to/for=you(fs) images male and,played_the_whore in/on/at/with,them )

This could mean: (1) this is a polite way to say the young woman was sleeping with the male figures. Alternate translation: “you slept with them” or (2) this is a metaphor in which Yahweh speaks of her worshiping the figures as if she were sleeping with them. Alternate translation: “you worshiped them” (See also: figs-metaphor)
