Listen to Ezequiel 6:4

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, alza tu mirada hacia los cerros de Israel, y profetiza contra ellos.
3 Diles: “Escuchen, cerros de Israel, la palabra del SEÑOR. Esto dice el SEÑOR omnipotente a cerros y colinas, a ríos y valles: ‘Haré que venga contra ustedes la espada, y destruiré sus lugares de culto idolátrico.
4 Despedazaré sus altares, haré añicos sus quemadores de incienso, y haré también que sus muertos caigan frente a sus ídolos.
5 En efecto, delante de sus ídolos arrojaré los cadáveres de los israelitas, y esparciré sus huesos en torno a sus altares.
6 No importa dónde vivan ustedes, sus ciudades serán destruidas y sus lugares de culto idolátrico serán devastados. Sus altares quedarán completamente destrozados; sus ídolos, hechos un montón de ruinas; sus quemadores de incienso, hechos añicos. ¡Todas sus obras desaparecerán!
