Ezekiel 8:7-10 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

What tended to aggravate those crying sins yet more was, that they were committed in the very sanctuary. And they had thrown up a wall to conceal from every eye, and none but his eye who seeth in secret could discover. Alas! when sin is made yet more exceeding sinful, both from the place and persons, where and by whom it is wrought, the evil riseth to a greater malignity. Lord! I pray thee give to me grace to recollect, that my secret sins are in the light of thy countenance; and all things are naked and open to the eyes of him with whom we have to do. Psalms 90:8; Hebrews 4:13.

Ezekiel 8:7-10

7 And he brought me to the door of the court; and when I looked, behold a hole in the wall.

8 Then said he unto me, Son of man, dig now in the wall: and when I had digged in the wall, behold a door.

9 And he said unto me, Go in, and behold the wicked abominations that they do here.

10 So I went in and saw; and behold every form of creeping things, and abominable beasts, and all the idols of the house of Israel, pourtrayed upon the wall round about.
