Gill's Notes on the Bible
For they have made ready their heart like an oven, whiles they lie in wait,.... The prince, people, and scorners before mentioned, being heated with wine, and their lust enraged, they were ready for any wickedness; for the commission of adultery, lying in wait for their neighbours' wives to debauch them; or for rebellion and treason against their king, and even the murder of him, made drunk by them, whom they now despised, and waited for an opportunity to dispatch him:
their baker sleepeth all the night; in the morning it burneth as a flaming fire; as a baker having put wood into his oven, and kindled it, leaves it, and sleeps all night, and in the morning it is all burning, and in a flame, and his oven is thoroughly heated, and fit for his purpose; so the evil concupiscence in these men's hearts, made hot like an oven, rests all night, devising mischief on their beds, either against the chastity of their neighbours' wives, or against the lives of others, they bear an ill will to, particularly against their judges and their kings, as Hosea 7:7; seems to intimate; and in the morning this lust of uncleanness or revenge is all in a flame, and ready to execute the wicked designs contrived; see Micah 2:1. Some by "their baker" understand Satan; others, their king asleep and secure; others Shallum, the head of the conspiracy against Zachariah.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
For they have made ready their heart like an oven - He gives the reason old their bursting out into open mischief; it was ever stored up within. They âmade ready,â (literally, âbrought nearâ) âtheir heart.â Their heart was ever brought near to sin, even while the occasion was removed at a distance from it. âThe âovenâ is their heart; the fuel, their corrupt affections, and inclinations, and evil concupiscence, with which it is filled; âtheir baker,â their own evil will and imagination, which stirs up whatever is evil in them.â The prophet then pictures how, while they seem for a while to rest from sin, it is but âwhile they lie in wait;â still, all the while, they made and kept their hearts ready, full of fire for sin and passion; any breathing-time from actual sin was no real rest; the heart was still all on fire; âin the morning,â right early, as soon as the occasion came, it burst forth.
The same truth is seen where the tempter is without. Such, whether Satan or his agents, having lodged the evil thought or desire in the soul, often feign themselves asleep, as it were, âletting the fire and the fuel which they had inserted, work together,â that so the fire pent-in might kindle more thoroughly and fatally, and, the heart being filled and penetrated with it, might burst out of itself, as soon as the occasion should come.
