Albert Barnes Commentary Ezekiel 22:1

"Moreover the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying," — Ezekiel 22:1 (ASV)

The fourth word of judgment (Ezekiel 22:1–16). The sins which have brought ruin upon Jerusalem are the sins which disgraced the pagan inhabitants of Canaan, whom the Israelites were to cast out (compare Leviticus 18). The commission of like sins would ensure like judgment.
