She is likened to someone drinking deeply from a large cup so that she loses all control over herself. And the wine she drinks is of sorrow, waste and desolation. All will laugh at her drunken behaviour once she has drunk, and when she has broken the cup she will gnaw at the broken pieces in her drunkenness, it is all that is now left to her, and she will tear at her breasts in anguish. And the cup she will drink will be the same as that drunk by her sister Samaria. She is to share the same fate. And it is doubly stressed that this is the word of Yahweh. She, as it were, drinks the cup at His hand.<\/p>\n<p> As ever we must not overpress the parable. The stress of the song is on the fact that she will drink, not on who gave her the cup. The point of the song is that she is drinking what she has brought on herself, and drinking deeply to the derision of others, and will thus end up in pathetic need and despair. her end will be in desperation. Those who keep bad company will reap the consequences.<\/p>\n<h4 align='right'><i><b>Fuente: Commentary Series on the Bible by Peter Pett<\/b><\/i><\/h4>\n<p> <em> <\/p>\n<p><\/em><\/p>\n<p> Eze 23:32 <em> Thus saith the Lord GOD; Thou shalt drink of thy sister&rsquo;s cup deep and large: thou shalt be laughed to scorn and had in derision; it containeth much.<\/p>\n<p><\/em><\/p>\n<p> Ver. 32.

Some commentators referred to this pericope as the &quot;cup song&quot; (cf. the &quot;sword song&quot; in Eze 21:8-17). Drinking this cup would make her an object of scorn as well as drunk and sad. The cup would contain punishment in the form of horror and desolation, just like Samaria had experienced. Oholibah would drain the cup; she would endure all the punishment God had for her. She would even madly gnaw the fragments of the earthenware cup or shatter it to pieces. The same Hebrew verb means &quot;to gnaw&quot; (NASB, NRSV) and &quot;to break&quot; (AV, NIV, NKJV). She would also tear at her breasts, probably in remorse over how she had used them to seduce her lovers. Another interpretation understands the cup as breaking and lacerating Oholibah&rsquo;s breasts. In other words, she would despise herself for her former behavior.<\/p>\n<h4 align='right'><i><b>Fuente: Expository Notes of Dr. Constable (Old and New Testaments)<\/b><\/i><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thus saith the Lord GOD; Thou shalt drink of thy sister&#8217;s cup deep and large: thou shalt be laughed to scorn and had in derision; it containeth much. 32. sister&rsquo;s cup deep ] i.e. which is deep.
