Commentaire sur Ézéchiel 16:51
וְשֹׁ֣מְר֔וֹן כַּחֲצִ֥י חַטֹּאתַ֖יִךְ לֹ֣א חָטָ֑אָה וַתַּרְבִּ֤י אֶת־תּוֹעֲבוֹתַ֙יִךְ֙ מֵהֵ֔נָּה וַתְּצַדְּקִי֙ אֶת־אחותך [אֲחוֹתַ֔יִךְ] בְּכָל־תּוֹעֲבוֹתַ֖יִךְ אֲשֶׁ֥ר עשיתי [עָשִֽׂית׃]
Mais Samarie n’a pas commis la moitié de tes péchés; tu as accumulé plus d’abominations que celles-là et innocenté tes sœurs par toutes les abominations que tu as faites.
Rashi on Ezekiel
and you vindicated your sisters Before you had committed abominations more than they, they would have been a judged guilty, but since you became more wicked than they, you made them [appear] as righteous women, and you gave them an excuse to say, “There are some who have provoked you more than I.”
