Exegesis
The sequence bah boʾ {בָּ֛ה בֹּא | bāh bōʾ} forms a temporal circumstantial clause, and the prepositional phrase bərov gillulav {בְּרֹב גִּלּוּלָיו | bə-rōv gil-lû-lāw} ‘in the multitude of his idols’ sets the measure for divine response.
In context — Ezekiel 14:4
Therefore, speak to them and say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord GOD : Any man of the house of Israel who sets up his idols in his heart , and places the stumbling block of his iniquity before his face, and then comes to the prophet, I the LORD will answer him according to the multitude of his idols.’
