شرح للأطفال
Imagine you have a best friend, but you keep going to play with other friends who don't like the same things you do. You feel happy for a while, but you end up feeling sad and lonely. This verse is like that story, but it's about a country that stopped following God and started following other things that made them unhappy.
السياق التاريخي
Ezekiel, a prophet, wrote this in the 6th century BCE during the Babylonian exile. He was addressing the Israelites, warning them about their unfaithfulness to God, similar to the actions of their ancestors who worshipped idols.
