Contextual Overview

13 And He said to me, You turn back, you shall see greater abominations which they are doing. 14 And He brought me to the opening of the gate of the house of Jehovah, toward the north. And, behold, women were sitting there weeping for Tammuz. 15 And He said to me, Have you seen, son of man? You turn again and you shall see greater abominations than these. 16 And he brought me into the inner court of the house of Jehovah. And, behold, at the opening of the temple of Jehovah, between the porch and the altar, were about twenty five men with their backs to the temple of Jehovah, and theirfaces eastward. And they bowed themselves eastward to the sun. 17 And He said to me, Son of man, have you seen? Is it a light thing to the house of Judah from doing the abominations which they do here? For they have filled the land with violence and have returned to provoke Me to anger. And, behold, theyare putting the branch to their nose! 18 And I also will deal with fury. My eye shall not spare, and I will not have pity. And though they cry in My ears with a loud voice, I will not hear them.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

He said also unto me, turn thee yet again,.... Towards the north, as before; :-;

[and] thou shall see greater abominations that they do; or: "the great abominations"; for so the words may be strictly rendered; nor does it appear that what follows, though great abominations, were greater than the creeping things, four footed beasts, and other idols, or dunghill gods, portrayed upon the walls, which the elders of Israel burnt incense to.
