Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

Now let: Rather, "Now shall they put away their whoredom and the carcases of their kings far from me, and I will dwell in the midst of them forever." It is a prediction and promise, and not an exhortation. Ezekiel 18:30, Ezekiel 18:31, Hosea 2:2, Colossians 3:5-9

the carcases: Ezekiel 43:7, Ezekiel 37:23

and I: Ezekiel 43:7, Ezekiel 37:26-28, 2 Corinthians 6:16

Reciprocal: Psalms 46:5 - God is Jeremiah 4:1 - put away

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Now let them put away their whoredom,.... Idolatry, superstition, and will worship, with which the corrupt church of Rome abounds; and whatever appearance thereof is in the reformed churches:

and the carcasses of their kings far from me; their idols;

:-,

and I will dwell in the midst of them for ever; now though the Jews were never guilty of idolatry after their return from the Babylonish captivity, nor even to this day; yet the Lord has departed from them, and left them to blindness and stupidity, they having rejected the Messiah he sent unto them; which shows that this passage refers not to those times, but to future times; when the whole Israel of God shall be cleared of all corruptions in doctrine and worship, and the Lord will take up his abode with them, and no more depart from them.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Ezekiel 43:9. Now let them put away their whoredom — Their idolatry.

And the carcasses of their kings — It appears that God was displeased with their bringing their kings so near his temple. David was buried in the city of David, which was on Mount Zion, near to the temple; and so were almost all the kings of Judah; but God requires that the place of his temple and its vicinity shall be kept unpolluted; and when they put away all kinds of defilement, then will he dwell among them.
