2 Re 23:9 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 23:9

Nevertheless, the priests of the high places came not up to the
altar of the Lord at Jerusalem
To sacrifice there, as the Targum; though they were removed from the high places, they were not admitted to officiate at the altar of the Lord, having offered in forbidden places:

but they did eat of the unleavened bread with their brethren;
the priests that were pure, as the sons of Zadok; though they might not offer sacrifices, they were allowed to partake of the holy things with the priests, as the meat offerings made of flour unleavened, ( Leviticus 2:4 Leviticus 2:5 ) which are here meant, and put for all the rest on which the priests lived, see ( Ezekiel 44:10-15 ) .

2 Re 23:9 In-Context

7 Poi disfece le case de’ cinedi, che erano nella Casa del Signore, nelle quali le donne tessevano delle cortine per lo bosco.
8 Oltre a ciò, fece venir tutti i sacerdoti dalle città di Giuda, e contaminò gli alti luoghi, ne’ quali que’ sacerdoti aveano fatti profumi, da Gheba fino in Beerseba; e disfece gli alti luoghi delle porte, e quello ancora ch’era all’entrata della porta di Giosuè, capitano della città, ch’era a man sinistra della porta della città.
9 Or quei sacerdoti degli alti luoghi non salivano più all’Altare del Signore, in Gerusalemme; ma pur mangiavano de’ pani azzimi, per mezzo i lor fratelli.
10 Contaminò eziandio Tofet, ch’era nella valle de’ figliuoli di Hinnom; acciocchè niuno vi facesse più passare il suo figliuolo, o la sua figliuola, per lo fuoco, a Molec.
11 Tolse ancora via i cavalli, che i re di Giuda aveano rizzati al sole, dall’entrata della Casa del Signore, fino alla stanza di Netanmelec, eunuco, la quale era in Parvarim; e bruciò col fuoco i carri del sole.
