Ezekiel 16:17

1798–1870
Presbyterian
SCRIPTURE

"Thou didst also take thy fair jewels of my gold and of my silver, which I had given thee, and madest for thee images of men, and didst play the harlot with them;" — Ezekiel 16:17 (ASV)

Possibly an allusion to the custom of bearing about shrines. Compare Amos 5:26; Acts 7:43.
