Forgetting God's Grace
Commentators John Calvin and John Gill agree that Israel's core sin was profound ingratitude. They forgot their helpless beginnings in Egypt, described as being 'naked and bare.' This spiritual amnesia caused them to become proud, taking credit for the blessings God had given them and ultimately turning to idols. Forgetting God's past grace is presented as the direct cause of their spiritual adultery.
