Ezekiel 16:31

John Gill - Exposition - John Gill

Read in KJV Bible Reader

In that thou buildest thine eminent place in the head of every way,.... Or brothel house, as before; [See comments on Ezekiel 16:24]; which showed her to be a whore, and an imperious one:

and makest thine high place in every street;

[See comments on Ezekiel 16:24];

and hast not been as an harlot: a common one, or as a harlot usually is:

in that thou scornest hire; which they do not; for it is for hire they prostitute themselves; and have their names, both in our language, and in the Latin tongue, from, thence.
