Gill's Notes on the Bible
Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination?.... This seems chiefly, and in the first place, to respect the false prophets and wicked priests; who when they committed idolatry, or any other sin, and led the people into the same by their doctrine and example, yet, when reproved for it, were not ashamed, being given up to a judicial hardness of heart:
nay, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush; they were men of impudent faces, they had a whore's forehead; there was not the least sign or appearance of shame in them; when charged with the foulest crimes, and threatened with the severest punishment, they were not moved by either; they had neither shame nor fear:
therefore they shall fall among them that fall; meaning that the prophets and priests should perish among the common people, and with them, who should be slain, and fall by the sword of the Chaldeans; the sacredness of their office would not exempt them; they should fare no better than the rest of the people:
at the time that I visit them they shall be cast down, saith the Lord; that is, when the city and temple should be destroyed by the Chaldeans, these would be cast down from their excellency, the high office in which they were, and fall into ruin, and perish with the rest.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
They are brought to shame because
They have âcommitted abomination:â
Shame nevertheless they feel not;
To blush nevertheless they know not;
âTherefore they shall fall amongâ the falling;
âAt the timeâ when âI visit them, they shallâ stumble,
âSaith Yahweh.â
The fact is expressed that their conduct was a disgrace to them, though they did not feel it as such. âAbominationâ has its usual meaning of idolatry Jeremiah 4:1.
