Salmos 74:6 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 74:6

But now they break down the carved work thereof at once with
axes and hammers.
] Formerly it was an honour to be employed in cutting down a tree for the building of the temple; but now so little regard was paid to it, that all its fine carved work, which Solomon made, ( 1 Kings 6:18 1 Kings 6:29 1 Kings 6:30 ) , was demolished at once in a rude and furious manner with axes and hammers; which was done either by the Chaldeans in Nebuchadnezzar's time, or by the Syrians in the times of Antiochus, or by the Romans in the times of Vespasian; the first seems intended; see ( Jeremiah 46:22 Jeremiah 46:23 ) .

Salmos 74:6 In-Context

4 Tus adversarios rugen en el lugar de tus asambleasy plantan sus banderas en señal de victoria.

5 Parecen leñadores en el bosque,talando árboles con sus hachas.

6 Con sus hachas y martillosdestrozaron todos los adornos de madera.

7 Prendieron fuego a tu santuario;profanaron el lugar donde habitas.

8 En su corazón dijeron: «¡Los haremos polvo!»,y quemaron en el país todos tus santuarios.
