Ezekiel 23:45

Righteous men; men that kept the law of their God, for some such there were about Aholibah herself; or prophets, such as Jeremiah and Ezekiel, and some few more: or else the Babylonians, who in the present controversy between Jerusalem and its king on the one part, and Nebuchadnezzar and the Babylonians on the other part, were comparatively the righteous men. After the manner of adulteresses; which was, to be put to death by stoning, Leviticus 20:10; and murder was punished with death.
