Ezekiel 24:13
Ezekiel 24:13 in Multiple Translations
Because of the indecency of your uncleanness I tried to cleanse you, but you would not be purified from your filthiness. You will not be pure again until My wrath against you has subsided.
In thy filthiness is lewdness: because I have purged thee, and thou wast not purged, thou shalt not be purged from thy filthiness any more, till I have caused my fury to rest upon thee.
In thy filthiness is lewdness: because I have cleansed thee and thou wast not cleansed, thou shalt not be cleansed from thy filthiness any more, till I have caused my wrath toward thee to rest.
As for your unclean purpose: because I have been attempting to make you clean, but you have not been made clean from it, you will not be made clean till I have let loose my passion on you in full measure.
Because of your immorality you had made yourself unclean and I tried to clean you, but you refused to let me clean away your filth. So now you won't be pure again until I've finished being angry with you.
Thou remainest in thy filthines and wickednes: because I would haue purged thee, and thou wast not purged, thou shalt not be purged from thy filthines, till I haue caused my wrath to light vpon thee.
In thine uncleanness [is] wickedness, Because I have cleansed thee, And thou hast not been cleansed, From thine uncleanness thou art not cleansed again, Till I have caused My fury to rest on thee.
“‘“In your filthiness is lewdness. Because I have cleansed you and you weren’t cleansed, you won’t be cleansed from your filthiness any more, until I have caused my wrath toward you to rest.
In thy filthiness is lewdness: because I have purged thee, and thou wast not purged, thou shalt not be purged from thy filthiness any more, till I have caused my fury to rest upon thee.
Thy uncleanness is execrable: because I desired to cleanse thee, and thou art not cleansed from thy filthiness: neither shalt thou be cleansed, before I cause my indignation to rest in thee.
The rustin the pot represents your immoral behavior. I tried to cleanse you from your wicked behavior, but you did not allow me to do that. So you will not be cleansedfrom the guilt of your sin untilI have punished you and I am no longer angry.

Ezekiel 24:13 Summary
Ezekiel 24:13 is a sobering reminder that God takes sin seriously and will not tolerate it in His people. Because of the sinful actions of God's people, He tried to cleanse them, but they refused to be purified. As a result, God's wrath must run its course before they can experience restoration, a theme also seen in passages like (Lamentations 3:22-23) and (Jeremiah 30:11). This verse encourages us to reflect on our own hearts and lives, recognizing the seriousness of sin and the importance of surrendering to God's purifying work, as seen in (Psalm 51:7) and (1 John 1:9).
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the 'indecency of your uncleanness' that God is referring to in Ezekiel 24:13?
The 'indecency of your uncleanness' refers to the sinful and immoral actions of God's people, which are an affront to His holiness, as seen in verses like Leviticus 18:1-30 and Deuteronomy 23:17-18.
Why did God try to cleanse His people, and what does it mean that they 'would not be purified from their filthiness'?
God's desire to cleanse His people is rooted in His love for them, as seen in Ezekiel 36:25-27, but their refusal to be purified indicates a hardness of heart, similar to what is described in Romans 2:5 and Hebrews 3:13.
What does it mean that God's people 'will not be pure again until My wrath against you has subsided'?
This phrase indicates that God's judgment must run its course before His people can experience restoration and purification, a theme also seen in Lamentations 3:22-23 and Jeremiah 30:11.
How does this verse relate to the concept of God's wrath and judgment?
This verse highlights the seriousness of God's judgment, which is a theme throughout Scripture, including passages like Psalm 7:11 and Romans 2:5-11, emphasizing that God's wrath is a consequence of sin and rebellion against Him.
Reflection Questions
- What are some ways that I may be resisting God's efforts to cleanse and purify me, and how can I surrender to His work in my life?
- In what ways do I see the 'indecency of uncleanness' in my own heart, and how can I turn to God for forgiveness and purification?
- How can I balance the truth of God's judgment and wrath with the reality of His love and mercy, as seen in passages like John 3:16 and 1 John 4:8?
- What does it mean for me to wait on God's timing for purification and restoration, and how can I trust in His goodness and sovereignty during difficult seasons?
Gill's Exposition on Ezekiel 24:13
In thy filthiness is lewdness,.... Consummate wickedness joined with impudence, and an obstinate persisting in it; though her sins were so abominable and filthy, yet she was not ashamed of them, nor
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Ezekiel 24:13
In thy filthiness is lewdness: because I have purged thee, and thou wast not purged, thou shalt not be purged from thy filthiness any more, till I have caused my fury to rest upon thee.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Ezekiel 24:13
In thy filthiness, in thy sinning, is lewdness; deliberate resolution grown up to obstinacy and boldness, with impudence that will not be corrected. I have purged thee; used all sorts of proper means to purge, advice, reproof, chastisements, threats of sorer sufferings, by prophets, by the rod, sometimes gentler, sometimes rougher, ,12. Thou wast not purged; wouldst not part from thy sins, and purify thy heart and ways, . Thou shalt not be purged; all further use of means shall be forborne; I will preach no more by prophets to call thee to repentance, but to condemn thee for pot repenting; God will from henceforth refer them to his sore destroying judgments, which are his fury, and which shall cease when this sinful kingdom, destroyed, can no longer provoke God as they had done formerly. Till I have caused my fury to rest upon thee: see 6:12 16:42 21:17.
Trapp's Commentary on Ezekiel 24:13
Ezekiel 24:13 In thy filthiness [is] lewdness: because I have purged thee, and thou wast not purged, thou shalt not be purged from thy filthiness any more, till I have caused my fury to rest upon thee.Ver. 13. In thy filthiness is lewdness,] i.e., Thou art desperately stiff and stubborn; thy disease is complicated, and threateneth death. Because I have purged thee,] i.e., Called upon thee by my prophets to "cleanse thyself of all filthiness of flesh and spirit"; sought also to purge thee by the soap of afflictions, and by the cudgel of calamities. And thou wast not purged.] From thy sin, which had gotten into thy very frame and constitution, was weaved into the texture of thine heart. Thou shalt not be purged.] But shalt perish in thy sins - which is worse than to die in a ditch - "and pine away in thine iniquities." He who is filthy, shall be filthy still; a fearful sentence. Till I have caused my fury to rest upon thee.] Till I have purged thee in hell fire, which will be ever doing, but never be done; donec omnia tela vindictae meae in te exhausero, till I have emptied my quiver, spent my wrath upon thee.
Ellicott's Commentary on Ezekiel 24:13
(6-14) These verses contain the application of the parable in two distinct parts (Ezekiel 24:6-14), but in such wise that the literal and the figurative continually run together. A new feature, that of the rust on the cauldron, is also introduced. A somewhat similar figure may be found in Isaiah 4:4, but with the difference that Ezekiel, as usual, goes much more into minute details.
Adam Clarke's Commentary on Ezekiel 24:13
Verse 13. In thy filthiness is lewdness] זמה zimmah, a word that denominates the worst kinds of impurity; adultery, incest, c., and the purpose, wish, design, and ardent desire to do these things. Hers were not accidental sins, they were abominations by design, and they were the worse in her, because God had cleansed her, had separated the Israelites from idolatry and idolatrous nations, and by his institutions removed from them all idolatrous incentives. But they formed alliances with the heathen, and adopted all their abominations therefore God would not spare them. See Ezekiel 24:14.
Cambridge Bible on Ezekiel 24:13
13. In thy … lewdness] Or, because of thy lewd filthiness, cf. Ezekiel 16:27, thy lewd way. shalt not be purged … more] i.e. shalt never be purged, till, &c., or purged so as to be again clean, till, &c. caused … to rest] appeased, Ezekiel 5:13, Ezekiel 8:18, Ezekiel 16:42.
Whedon's Commentary on Ezekiel 24:13
13. In thy filthiness is lewdness — Or, R.V., margin, “For thy filthy lewdness.” (See Ezekiel 16:27.) This includes not only the act, but the evil purpose. Caused… to rest — Rather, satisfied.
