Context Readings

Judgment And Salvation

3 The people who are provoking Me to anger, To My face continually, Sacrificing in gardens, and making perfume on the bricks: 4 Who are dwelling among sepulchres, And lodge in reserved places, Who are eating flesh of the sow, And a piece of abominable things -- their vessels. 5 Who are saying, 'Keep to thyself, come not nigh to me, For I have declared thee unholy.' These are a smoke in Mine anger, A fire burning all the day.
