Exegesis
The reference to umishabbototai {וּמִשַׁבְּתוֹתַי֙ | ū·mi·šab·bə·ṯō·ṯay} ‘my Sabbaths’ as a covenant sign, followed by heelimu {הֶעְלִ֣ימוּ | heʿ·li·mū} ‘hide,’ signals deliberate neglect, culminating in the Niphal imperfect vaechal {וָאֵחַ֖ל | wā·ʾê·ḥal} ‘I am profaned,’ which shifts the portrayal from human transgression to divine defilement.
In context — Ezekiel 22:26
Her priests have done violence to my law and have profaned my holy things; they have not set apart the holy from the common , nor have they taught the difference between the unclean and the clean, and they have turned their eyes from my Sabbaths; so I am profaned among them.
