Israel's Rebellion in Egypt

Ezekiel 20:4-9

Will you judge them, son of man, will you judge them? Cause them to know the abominations of their fathers;

and tell them, Thus says the Lord GOD: In the day when I chose Israel, and swore to the seed of the house of Jacob, and made myself known to them in the land of Egypt, when I swore to them, saying, I am the LORD your God;

in that day I swore to them, to bring them out of the land of Egypt into a land that I had searched out for them, flowing with milk and honey, which is the glory of all lands.

I said to them, Cast away every man the abominations of his eyes, and don’t defile yourselves with the idols of Egypt; I am the LORD your God.

But they rebelled against me, and would not listen to me; they each didn’t throw away the abominations of their eyes, neither did they forsake the idols of Egypt. Then I said I would pour out my wrath on them, to accomplish my anger against them in the midst of the land of Egypt.

But I worked for my name’s sake, that it should not be profaned in the sight of the nations, among which they were, in whose sight I made myself known to them, in bringing them out of the land of Egypt.
