וַיִּשְׁלַח תַּבְנִית יָד וַיִּקָּחֵנִי בְּצִיצִת רֹאשִׁי וַתִּשָּׂא אֹתִי רוּחַ׀ בֵּֽין-הָאָרֶץ וּבֵין הַשָּׁמַיִם וַתָּבֵא אֹתִי יְרוּשָׁלְַמָה בְּמַרְאוֹת אֱלֹהִים אֶל-פֶּתַח שַׁעַר הַפְּנִימִית הַפּוֹנֶה צָפוֹנָה אֲשֶׁר-שָׁם מוֹשַׁב סֵמֶל הַקִּנְאָה הַמַּקְנֶֽה׃
3
And he put forth the form of an hand, and took me by a lock of mine head; and the spirit lifted me up between the earth and the heaven, and brought me in the visions of God to Jerusalem, to the door of the inner gate that looketh toward the north; where was the seat of the image of jealousy, which provoketh to jealousy.

Judges 2:11

וַיַּֽעֲשׂוּ בְנֵֽי-יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶת-הָרַע בְּעֵינֵי יְהוָה וַיַּֽעַבְדוּ אֶת-הַבְּעָלִֽים׃

הִנֵּה-קוֹל שַֽׁוְעַת בַּת-עַמִּי מֵאֶרֶץ מַרְחַקִּים הַֽיהוָה אֵין בְּצִיּוֹן אִם-מַלְכָּהּ אֵין בָּהּ מַדּוּעַ הִכְעִסוּנִי בִּפְסִלֵיהֶם בְּהַבְלֵי נֵכָֽר׃
19
Behold the voice of the cry of the daughter of my people because of them that dwell in a far country: Is not the LORD in Zion? is not her king in her? Why have they provoked me to anger with their graven images, and with strange vanities?

1 Kings 11:10

וְצִוָּה אֵלָיו עַל-הַדָּבָר הַזֶּה לְבִלְתִּי-לֶכֶת אַֽחֲרֵי אֱלֹהִים אֲחֵרִים וְלֹא שָׁמַר אֵת אֲשֶׁר-צִוָּה יְהוָֽה׃
