Commentary on Ezekiel 23:3

Theological / Devotional

In their youth. For the purpose of the parable they are represented as having had a separate existence even during the period of the sojourn in Egypt. It was in their “youth” that they had become alienated from God. At this time Israel was still considered unmarried. The marriage with Jehovah took place when the covenant was made at Sinai (Ex. 19).
