Ezekiel 8:9 In-Context

7 Then He brought me to the entrance of the court, and when I looked there was a hole in the wall.

8 He said to me, "Son of man, dig through the wall." So I dug through the wall, and there was a doorway.

9 He said to me, "Go in and see the terrible abominations they are committing here."

10 I went in and looked, and there engraved all around the wall was every form of detestable thing, crawling creatures and beasts, as well as all the idols of the house of Israel.

11 Seventy elders from the house of Israel were standing before them, with Jaazaniah son of Shaphan standing among them. Each had an incense burner in his hand, and a fragrant cloud of incense was rising up.
