This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

And have carried into your temples; and in contempt of me, with proud insulting, have presented them in your temples to your idols, as if they were mightier and more glorious than I: so did the Philistines carry the ark into Dagon’s temple, but it cost Dagon his head, 1Sa_5:4; and Nebuchadnezzar carried away the sacred vessels when he spoiled the temple.



My goodly pleasant things; God speaks of these after the manner of man, and so accounteth of these things.
