Ezechiele 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.

Ezechiele 6:4 In-Context

2 volgi la tua faccia verso i monti d’Israele, profetizza contro di loro, e di’:
3 O monti d’Israele, ascoltate la parola del Signore, dell’Eterno! Così parla il Signore, l’Eterno, ai monti ed ai colli, ai burroni ed alle valli: Eccomi, io fo venire su di voi la spada, e distruggerò i vostri alti luoghi.
4 I vostri altari saranno desolati, le vostre colonne solari saranno infranti, e io farò cadere i vostri uccisi davanti ai vostri idoli.
5 E metterò i cadaveri de’ figliuoli d’Israele davanti ai loro idoli, e spargerò le vostre ossa attorno ai vostri altari.
6 Dovunque abitate, le città saranno deserte e gli alti luoghi desolati, affinché i vostri altari siano deserti e desolati, i vostri idoli siano infranti e scompaiano, le vostre colonne solari siano abbattute, e tutte le vostre opere siano spazzate via.
