Today is the seventh day of November. Welcome to the Daily Audio Bible.

I am Brian. I am grateful, deeply grateful to be here with you today, albeit a little tired,

grateful, profoundly. To be here with you today, albeit a little tired, grateful, profoundly.

To be here with you today, how are you?

How's your, how's your weak, Ben?

I am glad to be here.

I am glad to be in this kind of timeless space around the global campfire, this safe oasis

as we continue this journey forward day by day and step by step.

So with a grateful heart, let's jump in to our reading from the book of Ezekiel today.

Chapter 16, verse 42 through 17, verse 24.

Then my anger will be over and I will be calm I will not be angry or jealous anymore you have forgotten how I treated you when you were young and you have made me angry by all the things you did.

That is why I have made you pay for them all.

Why did you add sexual immorality to all the other disgusting things you did?

The sovereign Lord has spoken.

The Lord said, people will use this proverb about you,

Jerusalem.

Like mother, like daughter.

You really are your mother's daughter.

She detested her husband and her children.

You are like your sisters who hated their husbands and their children.

You and your sister cities had a Hittite mother and an Amarite father.

Your older sister with her villages is Samaria in the north. Your younger sister with her villages is Samaria in the north.
