Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Ezekiel 15:8

_ _ trespass — rather, “they have perversely fallen into perverse rebellion.” The Jews were not merely sinners as the other nations, but revolters and apostates. It is one thing to neglect what we know not, but quite another thing to despise what we profess to worship [Jerome], as the Jews did towards God and the law.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Ezekiel 15:1-8.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Ezekiel 15:8

Because — They have been so perpetually trespassing, that it seems a continued act.
