Context — God's Warning to Israelgenerated
Ezekiel 20:28 describes a moment when God brought the Israelites into the land He promised them. Instead of worshiping Him, they turned to high places and leafy trees to offer sacrifices to idols. This act of unfaithfulness provoked God's anger, as they chose to worship created things rather than their Creator. The context highlights Israel's repeated disobedience and the consequences of their actions, reflecting on their history of turning away from God.

The Key Word — זִבְחֵיהֶם, ziv.chei.Hemgenerated
The word זִבְחֵיהֶם (zivcheihem) means 'their sacrifices' and is derived from the root זָבַח (zavach), which signifies the act of slaughtering animals for offerings. This term encompasses various types of sacrifices, including those made for worship and divine favor.
In this verse, it specifically refers to the sacrifices the Israelites made to idols, which were an abomination to God. The use of the possessive suffix indicates that these sacrifices were a personal act of rebellion against Him.

Sentence Structuregenerated
The finite verb וָאֲבִיאֵם (va'avi'em), and I brought them, governs the entire verse, with multiple phrases detailing what happened after their arrival in the land. The structure shows a sequence of actions that the Israelites took upon entering the land, highlighting their disobedience.
The sentence is complex, with several clauses describing the actions of the Israelites, including their sighting of high hills and trees, and their subsequent offerings. This structure emphasizes the contrast between God's intention and Israel's actions.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates וָאֲבִיאֵם as αὐτοὺς (G848), meaning 'them.' This choice reflects the translators' focus on the people being addressed, maintaining the direct connection to the Israelites.
The translation of זִבְחֵיהֶם is not explicitly noted in the provided data, but the general correspondence indicates that the Septuagint retains the sacrificial context, aligning with the Hebrew's emphasis on offerings.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Ezekiel 20:28 tells us that when God brought the Israelites into the land He promised, they saw high hills and leafy trees, where they offered sacrifices to idols. This act provoked God's anger, as they chose to worship created things instead of Him.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
It means that the Israelites engaged in acts of worship directed towards idols rather than honoring God, which was a significant violation of their covenant with Him.
God brought them into the land as a fulfillment of His promise, intending for them to live in obedience and worship Him alone.
High hills and leafy trees were often associated with pagan worship practices, where people would offer sacrifices to idols, demonstrating their unfaithfulness to God.
This verse highlights a recurring theme in Israel's history of turning away from God to worship other deities, leading to God's displeasure and warnings through the prophets.
Reflection Questionsgenerated
- In what ways do we see modern parallels to Israel's actions in this verse?
- How can we ensure that our worship is directed solely towards God?

CambridgeThe Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges28. The prophet regards the worship on the high-places and under the evergreen trees as a Canaanitish usage adopted by Israel, as Deuteronomy 12. At the same time Israel usually employed the altars or chapels which they found for the service of Jehovah; but naturally many corruptions would creep into such service, and it might become little different from a service of Baal. In the oldest prophets, Amos and Hosea, it is the kind of worship at the high-places that is condemned, the revelry and heathenish merrymaking (Hosea 9:1) the sensuousness (Hosea 8:13; Amos 5:21), and the false conception Of deity implied in it (Hosea 6:6). The mere localities or multitude of altars do not seem assailed…

Egyptian saws, so far as has yet been discovered, are single-handed. As is the case in modern Oriental saws, the teeth usually incline toward the handle, instead of away from it like ours. They have, in most cases, bronze blades, apparently attached to the handles by leathern thongs. No evidence exists of the use of the saw applied to stone in Egypt, but we read of sawn stones used in the temple. (1 Kings 7:9) The saws "under" or "in" which David is said to have placed his captives were of iron. The expression in (2 Samuel 12:31) does not necessarily imply torture, but the word "cut" in (1 Chronicles 20:3) can hardly be understood otherwise.

In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.
