1 Ezekiel, in a vision of God at Jerusalem,
5 is shewn the image of jealousy;
7 the chambers of imagery;
13 the mourners for Tammuz;
16 the worshippers toward the sun.
17 God's wrath for their idolatry.
VERSE 1
- in the sixth year.
* Eze 1:2; 20:1; 24:1; 26:1; 29:1,17; 31:1; 32:17; 40:1

VERSE 2
- I beheld.
* Eze 1:4,26,27 Da 7:9,10 Re 1:14,15
- amber.
Amber is a hard, inflammable, bituminous substance, of a
beautiful yellow color, very transparent, and susceptible of
an exquisite polish. When rubbed it is highly endowed with
electricity; a name which the moderns have formed from its
Greek name [ .] But, as amber becomes dim as soon as
it feels the fire, and is speedily consumed, it is probable
that the original {chashmal,} which Bochart derives from the
Chaldee {nechash,} copper, and {melala,} gold, was a mixed
metal, similar to that which the Greeks called [ ,]
electrum, as the LXX. and Vulgate render, from its
resemblance to amber in color.

These images portrayed on the wall were no doubt the objects
of Egyptian idolatry, the ox, ape, crocodile, ibis, beetle,
etc., as we find those idols were painted on the walls of the
tombs of kings and nobles.

It seems that the Jews had incorporated every species of
idolatry into their worship, Egyptian, Phoenician, and
Persian; for this evidently was the Magian worship of the
sun.
VERSE 17
- Is it a light, etc. or, Is there any thing lighter than to
commit, etc. for.

* Am 3:10; 6:3 Mic 2:2; 6:12 Zep 1:9
- they put.
So the Vulgate has, {applicant ramum ad nares suas,} "they
apply the branch to their nose;" which Jerome explains by "a
branch of the palm tree with which they adored the idols;"
and it seems plainly to allude to the Magian
fire-worshippers, who, Strabo tells us, held a little bunch
of twigs in their hand, when praying before the fire.
VERSE 18
- will I also.
* Eze 5:11-13; 7:4-9; 9:5,10; 16:42; 24:13 Na 1:2
