Reading for March 1st

Read Ezekiel 16.6-14
God commands the abandoned infant to live but does nothing to care for her.
She grows up like a plant but remains naked.
I spread the edge of my cloak over you, and covered your nakedness indicates God's
intent to marry the young woman (Ruth 3.9).
Only after taking Jerusalem in marriage does God wash the blood from her and clothe her.
The description of fine clothing, jewelry, and food (see Isa 3.18-23) demonstrates God's
generosity to the unwanted Jerusalem.
