Ezequiel 6:4

Listen to Ezequiel 6:4
4 'Vuestros altares serán devastados, vuestros altares de incienso serán destrozados y haré que caigan vuestros muertos delante de vuestros ídolos.

Ezequiel 6:4 Meaning and 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. The word for images has its derivation from heat; and were so called, either from the heat of the sun, to whose worship they were devoted, or from the heat of the love and affections of their worshippers: and I will cast down your slain [men] before your idols;
before your dung, or your "dunghill gods" F3; for the word used has the signification of dung, ( Ezekiel 4:12 ) . The Targum renders it,

``before the carcass of your idols;''
where they committed idolatry, there they should be slain; which points at the cause of their punishment.

Ezequiel 6:4 In-Context

2 Hijo de hombre, pon tu rostro hacia los montes de Israel, profetiza contra ellos,
3 y di: "Montes de Israel, escuchad la palabra del Señor DIOS. Así dice el Señor DIOS a los montes, a las colinas, a las barrancas y a los valles: 'He aquí, yo mismo traeré sobre vosotros la espada y destruiré vuestros lugares altos.
4 'Vuestros altares serán devastados, vuestros altares de incienso serán destrozados y haré que caigan vuestros muertos delante de vuestros ídolos.
5 'También pondré los cadáveres de los hijos de Israel delante de sus ídolos, y esparciré vuestros huesos alrededor de vuestros altares.
6 'Dondequiera que tengáis vuestras moradas, las ciudades quedarán desoladas y los lugares altos devastados, para que queden desolados y devastados vuestros altares, rotos y eliminados vuestros ídolos, derribados vuestros altares de incienso y borradas vuestras obras.
