Ezekiel 24:12 Commentary: Rashi

תְּאֻנִ֖ים הֶלְאָ֑ת וְלֹֽא־תֵצֵ֤א מִמֶּ֙נָּה֙ רַבַּ֣ת חֶלְאָתָ֔הּ בְּאֵ֖שׁ חֶלְאָתָֽהּ׃

It hath wearied itself with toil; yet its great filth goeth not forth out of it, yea, its noisome filth.

Rashi on Ezekiel

With guile she wearied [Heb. תְּאֻנִים הֶלְאָת.] With pretext and guile, she wearied the poor. Therefore, the wicked in her midst will not leave her, but they will perish in the fire of her retribution.
