their wicked ways
Prophets scolded the Hebrews about their wicked ways, such as marrying people that weren't of the same religion, falling into idol worship and forgetting Gods commandments.
The reason is the opposite of what most people think. Consider these verses: "You understand in your heart, that just as a man rebukes his son, the Lord your God rebukes you (plural)" (Deuteronomy 8:5)
"Only you (plural) do I (God) know from among all the families (nations) of the Earth; therefor do I take mind of all your sins" (Amos 3:2)
And the very last of the Israelite prophets:
"I love you (plural), says God" (Malachi 1:2).
These verses make it clear that it is out of His love for them that God rebuked the Israelites through His prophets. Like a magnifying mirror that enlarges one's blemishes, the prophets castigated the Israelites in order to keep them from slipping too far from perfection. Other nations were not continuously rebuked because they never sought perfection to begin with.
