Hesekiel 8:17

17 Und er sprach zu mir: Menschenkind, siehst du das? Ist's dem Hause Juda zu wenig, alle solche Greuel hier zu tun, daß sie auch sonst im ganzen Lande eitel Gewalt und Unrecht treiben und reizen mich immer wieder? Und siehe, sie halten die Weinrebe an die Nase.

Commentary

 

North

  

'North,' in Isaiah 14:31, signifies hell. 'The North,' as in Jeremiah 3:12, signifies people who are ignorant of truth, and yet have the life of good. 'North' signifies people in obscurity regarding truth.
