And blood, is one their hands, Yea with their manufactured gods, have they committed adultery. And even their own children whom they bare unto me, have they set apart for them to be devoured. 38 Yet more, this, have they done to me, They have defiled my sanctuary. Ion the same day, And my sabbaths, have they profaned. 39 Yea when they had slaughtered their children to their manufactured gods, then entered they into my sanctuary, on the same day, to profane it,- And lo! thus have they done in the midst of mine own house. 40 Yea verily, that ye must needs send for men, ready to come in. from afar-in that a messenger was sent unto them. and to they came, For whom thou didst bathe thyself Paint thine eyes And deck thyself with ornaments. 41 Then satest thou upon a glorious couch With a table prepared before it, - And mine incense and mine oil, didst thou set thereon. 42 The noise of careless throng also, was with her, And besides men out of the mass of mankind, there wore brought in drunkards, out of the desert; And they put bracelets upon the hands of both women, And crowns of adorning upon their heads. 43 Then said I of her that was worn out with adulteries, Will they now join in her unchaste doings even hers? 44 Yet came they in unto her, as men go in unto a woman that is a harlot, - So, came they in unto Oholah, and unto Oholibah - the lewd women! 45 But righteous men, they, shall judge them, With the judgment of adulteresses, and With the judgment of women that shed blood, - Because adulteresses, they are And blood, is on their hands.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Moreover this they have done unto me,..... The following piece of wickedness, which was very provoking to the Lord:

they have defiled my sanctuary in the same day; as they caused their children to pass through the tire to their idols, by entering into the sanctuary when they had so done, and were thus defiled, and by offering sacrifices to their idols in it; or under pretence of serving the Lord, when they had just been guilty of murder and idolatry:

and have profaned my sabbaths; not only by doing their own worldly and civil business, but by slaying their infants on those days, and sacrificing them to idols.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The same day - The day when they made their offerings. See Ezekiel 23:39.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Ezekiel 23:38. They have defiled my sanctuary — By placing idols there.
