Ezekiel 20:31
_ _ through the fire — As “the fire” is omitted in Ezekiel 20:26, Fairbairn represents the generation here referred to (namely, that of Ezekiel’s day) as attaining the climax of guilt (see on Ezekiel 20:26), in making their children pass through the fire, which that former generation did not. The reason, however, for the omission of “the fire” in Ezekiel 20:26 is, perhaps, that there it is implied the children only “passed through the fire” for purification, whereas here they are actually burnt to death before the idol; and therefore “the fire” is specified in the latter, not in the former case (compare 2 Kings 3:27). |

Shall I be enquired of — Are you fit to ask counsel of me, whom you have so obstinately forsaken and reproached? |

(p) He shows that the ingratitude of the people deserves that God should cut them off, and that they should not have the comfort of his word. |
