The Key Word — מָרָה, va.Te.mergenerated
The verb מָרָה (marah) means to rebel, indicating a defiance against authority, particularly God's. It is a Hiphil form, which emphasizes the action of causing rebellion rather than simply being rebellious. The parsing as a third person feminine singular suggests that Jerusalem, personified as a woman, is the subject acting in rebellion.
This term captures the essence of disobedience and contention, particularly in a spiritual context. It conveys a sense of stubbornness and resistance to God's commands, which is a central theme in the prophetic literature.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb תֶּ֨מֶר (temer) governs the entire clause, indicating the action of rebellion. Two phrases follow: the first describes the object of rebellion (God's judgments), and the second compares Jerusalem's actions to those of the surrounding nations. This structure emphasizes the severity of Jerusalem's rebellion in a comparative context.
The sentence is constructed with a clear subject-verb-object order, which highlights the direct relationship between Jerusalem's actions and God's statutes.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates מָרָה as ἐρεῖς (ereis), which means 'to say' or 'to speak.' This choice may imply a broader interpretation of rebellion, suggesting not just actions but also the words and attitudes that accompany such defiance.
This translation choice reflects a potential interpretative nuance, emphasizing the verbal aspect of rebellion against God's decrees.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Ezekiel 5:6 shows that Jerusalem has rebelled against God's laws more wickedly than the nations around her. The people have rejected God's ordinances and have not followed His statutes. This highlights the seriousness of their disobedience and the consequences that follow.

It would be an exaggeration to say that the Israelites were actually more evil in their life than the surrounding heathen; for they were, no doubt, far better. Even of those cities which our Lord, at a later day, so strongly upbraided, it would be absurd to suppose that they equalled Sodom and Gomorrah in their iniquity. God’s judgments are always relative and proportioned to the opportunities He has granted to men. The point is that the…

AdamClarkeAdam Clarke's Commentary on the BibleVerse 6. She hath changed my judgments] God shows the reason why he deals with Jerusalem in greater severity than with the surrounding nations; because she was more wicked than they. Bad and idolatrous as they were, they had a greater degree of morality among them than the Jews had. Having fallen from the true God, they became more abominable than others in proportion to the height, eminence, and glory from which they had fallen. This is the common case of backsliders; they frequently, in their fall, become tenfold more the children of wrath than they were before.

1. In the Old Testament:
The state of being wicked; a mental disregard for justice, righteousness, truth, honor, virtue; evil in thought and life; depravity; sinfulness; criminality. See SIN. Many words are rendered "wickedness." There are many synonyms for wickedness in English and also in the Hebrew. Pride and vanity lead to it: "All the proud, and all that work wickedness (rish`ah) shall be stubble" (Mal 4:1). Akin to this is the word `awen, "iniquity," "vanity": "She eateth, and wipeth her mouth, and saith, I have done no wickedness" (Pr 30:20). Then we have the word hawwah, meaning "mischief," "calamity," coming from inward intent upon evil: "Lo, this is the man that made not God his strength, but trusted in the abundance of his riches, and strengthened himself in…
