Verse 16 is found in chapter 20 of Ezekiel. The second generation repeats the rebellion of their fathers. The prophecy shows that unfaithfulness was not an isolated episode but a persistent pattern. Being given statutes that were not good functions as an expression of divine judgment upon a community that insists on abandoning the commandments.
