Commentary on Ezekiel 36:20

Theological / Devotional

Profaned my holy name. The conduct and attendant miseries of the Israelites dishonored Yahweh in the sight of the heathen, who naturally inferred that if this was all that the God of Israel could do for His devotees, He was no better than their own gods. The heathen regarded Yahweh merely as the national God of the Israelites (see Num. 14:16; Jer. 14:9).
