Her priests have violated my law, and have profaned mine holy things: they have put no difference between the holy and profane, neither have they shewed [difference] between the unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from my sabbaths, and I am profaned among them.

Commentary on Ezekiel 22:26

Theological / Devotional

Have violated my law. It was the special work of the priests to give instruction concerning the divine requirements and to observe and to teach the distinction between the holy and the unholy (Lev. 10:10), and to instruct the people in proper Sabbath observance. In all this they had been unfaithful.

Hid their eyes. This indictment has a striking parallel in our day. The prophecies of the book of Revelation (chs. 12-14) declare that God is calling for a reform in the matter of a return to the true Sabbath of the Lord, the seventh day of the week. This reformation is to prepare the world for the second coming of Christ. The message has been proclaimed. The reaction has been the same as in Ezekiel’s day. Men hide their eyes from the obligation to keep the true Sabbath. They close their eyes to plain scriptural evidences and declare, “I cannot see it.”
