Ezekiel 16:45

Thou art thy mother’s daughter, that lotheth her husband and her children; and thou art the sister of thy sisters, which lothed their husbands and their children: your mother was an Hittite, and your father an Amorite.

Cross-reference

In Ezekiel 16:3, God declares Jerusalem's origin from an Amorite father and Hittite mother — the same origin repeated here.

In Ezekiel 16:15, the same narrative shows Jerusalem trusting in her beauty and playing the harlot—specifying the unfaithfulness behind the charge.

In Ezekiel 16:20, the charge of hating children is exemplified by sacrificing them to idols—a concrete act of that hatred.

In Ezekiel 16:21, the child sacrifice is repeated with emphasis on slaughtering God's children, deepening the horror of the hatred.

In Ezekiel 16:44, the proverb 'Like mother, like daughter' is introduced — verse 45 then applies it by naming Jerusalem's mother.

In Ezekiel 23:37-39, the sister city Oholibah mirrors Jerusalem's adultery and child sacrifice, reinforcing the same indictment.

In Deuteronomy 12:31, burning children as sacrifices is called detestable—exactly what Jerusalem did to those she hated.

Romans 1:31 Parallel

In Romans 1:31, 'unloving' (without natural affection) directly parallels hating one's children—the same heartless sin.
