Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Ezekiel 6:1-7

Here, I. The prophecy is directed to the mountains of Israel (Ezek. 6:1, 2); the prophet must set his face towards them. If he could see so far off as the land of Israel, the mountains of that land would be first and furthest seen; towards them therefore he must look, and look boldly and stedfastly, as the judge looks at the prisoner, and directs his speech to him, when he passes sentence upon him. Though the mountains of Israel be ever so high and ever so strong, he must set his face against... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 6:4

And your altars shall be desolate ,.... Being pulled down; or because the priests and worshippers would now be slain, and there would be none to attend them: and your images shall be broken ; the "images of the sun" F2 חמניכם "simulacra vestra solis", Pagninus; "solaria vestra", Vatablus; "subdiales statuae vestrae", Junius & Tremellius, Piscator, Polanus. . The word for images has its derivation from heat; and were so called, either from the heat of the sun, to whose worship... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 6:5

And I will lay the dead carcasses of the children of Israel before their idols ,.... Which is repeated for the confirmation of it: and I will scatter your bones round about your altars : which were reckoned a pollution of them; see 2 Kings 23:14 . read more

Will scatter your bones round about your altars - This was literally fulfilled by the Chaldeans. According to Baruch, 2:24, 25, they opened the sepulchres of the principal people, and threw the bones about on every side. read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 6:4

Verse 4 Hence it appears how greatly obedience pleases God, and how true it is that it is better than sacrifices. (1 Samuel 15:22; 1 Kings 12:0.) For it is certain that the Israelites extolled their own fictions exorbitantly, as if they were worshipping God correctly In the beginning, indeed, Jeroboam cunningly devised those new rites, that he might alienate the ten tribes from the family of David, and at length the error spread, so that they thought that God approved that impious worship. But... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 6:5

Verse 5 By these words the Prophet signifies that God’s wrath would be manifest, because he impresses certain marks by which it may be judged that the Israelites had provoked his anger; because they had departed from the pure and genuine order of the law. He says, therefore, I will place the carcases of the sons of Israel before their idols, when the carcases were so mingled with the idols, hence it appeared that God was greatly offended. For we know that it was detestable in all sacrifices... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 6:1-6

The idolatry of the land avenged. Turning from the city of Jerusalem to the land generally, the Prophet Ezekiel addresses himself to Israel, the nation whom God had chosen, and who had rejected God. By a striking figure of speech, he delivers his message to the mountains and hills, the water courses and ravines of Palestine. How dear all these features of the land of his fathers must have been to the prophet, we can easily imagine; national and religious associations must, in the course of... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 6:1-7

The land involved in man's punishment. We have here a dramatic appeal to the stony hills of Palestine. Canaan is emphatically a mountainous country; and Ezekiel, speaking as the mouthpiece of God, addresses himself to the high places of Canaan, as the scenes of flagrant idolatry. From his residence by the banks of Chebar he could not see with his bodily eye these renowned, but now desecrated, hills; yet he sees them with the clear eye of imagination. His fervid appeal to these loved hills... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 6:1-7

The impotence of idols. "And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying, Son of man, set thy thee toward the mountains of Israel," etc. The former prophecies related chiefly to the city of Jerusalem and the laud of Judah. But this one relates to the whole of the land of Israel. Hence the Lord God, through his prophet, addresses "the mountains and the hills," etc. ( Ezekiel 6:3 ). The burden of this chapter is a proclamation of Divine judgment because of the idolatry of the people. This,... read more
