One, i.e. some, or the man of quality, state, and such as were of high degree, as the word is translated Psa 62:9. Or what if it were translated as Eze 22:6, every one; it was grown a most general vice, as Jer 5:8.
Abomination with his neighbour’s wife; adultery, which God doth, and man should, abhor.

Another: horrible, shameless doings! the father-in-law committing incest with the wife’s daughter, and brothers defile their own sisters; all this against the light of nature, the law of civilized nations, and the law of God. And, if our conjecture be right, all this done in their lewd, idolatrous feasts kept to the honour of Tammuz, and in the very temple, or near to it. Compare this with Eze 23:9, and with Eze 8:14.

and another in thee hath humbled his sister, his father's daughter: his own sister, begotten of the same father, though it may be not born of the same mother; yet the relation is too near for marriage; and besides, it is a rape that is here intended; and the uncovering of the nakedness of a sister, whether by father or mother's side, whether born at home or abroad, is prohibited, Lev 18:9, and some have thought that all these acts of uncleanness were committed in honour of their idols, and when they worshipped them on the mountains, Eze 22:9.

Vers. 11, 12. The list of sins follows on the lines of Lev_18:9, Lev_18:15. (For those in Ver. 12, see notes on Eze_18:12) It is to be remarked, however, that the prophet does not confine himself to the mere enumeration of specific sins. These are traced to their source in that "forgetting God" which was at once the starting-point and the consummation of all forms of evil. (comp. Rom_1:28)
