I dealt with them
This phrase indicates God's active role in administering justice. The Hebrew root word here is "עָשָׂה" (asah), which means to do, make, or act. It emphasizes God's sovereignty and His righteous judgment. In the context of Ezekiel, God is portrayed as a just judge who responds to the actions of His people. This reflects the biblical principle that God is not passive but actively engages with humanity, holding them accountable for their actions.

according to their uncleanness
The term "uncleanness" comes from the Hebrew word "טֻמְאָה" (tum'ah), which refers to ritual impurity or moral defilement. In the Old Testament, uncleanness often required purification rituals, symbolizing the need for holiness before God. This phrase underscores the seriousness of sin and its consequences. It serves as a reminder that God’s people are called to be holy, set apart from the world, and that sin disrupts their relationship with Him.

and their transgressions
"Transgressions" is translated from the Hebrew word "פֶּשַׁע" (pesha), meaning rebellion or sin. This word conveys a deliberate act of disobedience against God's law. The use of this term highlights the willful nature of the people's sins, emphasizing that they were not merely mistakes but conscious choices to defy God. It serves as a warning of the dangers of hardening one's heart against divine commandments.

and I hid My face from them
The phrase "I hid My face" is a powerful expression of divine displeasure and withdrawal of favor. In Hebrew, "face" (פָּנִים, panim) often symbolizes presence and blessing. When God hides His face, it signifies a withdrawal of His protective presence and a break in fellowship. This imagery is used throughout Scripture to describe the consequences of persistent sin, reminding believers of the importance of seeking God's face and maintaining a close relationship with Him.
