Midrash sur Isaïe 2:6
כִּ֣י נָטַ֗שְׁתָּה עַמְּךָ֙ בֵּ֣ית יַעֲקֹ֔ב כִּ֤י מָלְאוּ֙ מִקֶּ֔דֶם וְעֹֽנְנִ֖ים כַּפְּלִשְׁתִּ֑ים וּבְיַלְדֵ֥י נָכְרִ֖ים יַשְׂפִּֽיקוּ׃
Certes, tu avais délaissé ton peuple, la maison de Jacob, car ils étaient envahis de superstitions venues de l’Orient, de pratiques de sorcellerie comme les Philistins, ils se complaisaient aux produits des étrangers.
Sifrei Devarim
"and he forsook the G-d who made him": as in (Isaiah 51:13) "And you have forgotten the L-rd who made you, who spread out the heavens and founded the earth." And (Jeremiah 2:13) "For two evils have My people committed": The Holy One Blessed be He said to them: As you have meted it out to Me have I meted it out to you (Ibid. 12:7) "I have abandoned My house (the Temple); I have forsaken My inheritance," (Psalms 78:60) "and He abandoned the tabernacle of Shiloh," (Isaiah 2:6) "For you have forsaken your people, house of Jacob."
