(Show All Books | Show All Chapters)
This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
excellency of your strength - (compare Amo 6:8). The object of your pride and confidence (Jer 7:4, Jer 7:10, Jer 7:14).
desire of ... eyes - (Psa 27:4). The antitype to Ezekiel’s wife (Eze 24:16).
pitieth - loveth, as pity is akin to love: “yearned over.”
Profane - an appropriate word. They had profaned the temple with idolatry; God, in just retribution, will profane it with the Chaldean sword, that is, lay it in the dust, as Ezekiel’s wife.
sons ... daughters ... left - the children left behind in Judea, when the parents were carried away.
