Yehezkiel 43:8

Alkitab Terjemahan Lama

Pada masa dibubuhnya ambang pintunya dekat dengan ambang pintu-Ku dan jenangnyapun pada sisi jenang-Ku, sehingga hanya satu pagar tembok jaraknya antara mereka itu dengan Aku! Demikianlah dihinakannya nama-Ku yang mahasuci itu oleh perkara keji yang dibuatnya, sehingga Kubinasakan mereka itu dengan kehangatan murka-Ku!

Alkitab Terjemahan Baru
juga tidak dengan meletakkan ambang pintu mereka dekat ambang pintu-Ku atau mendirikan tiang-tiang pintu mereka dekat tiang-tiang pintu-Ku, sehingga hanya dinding yang memisahkan Aku dari mereka. Mereka menajiskan nama-Ku yang kudus dengan perbuatan-perbuatan mereka yang keji, maka dari itu Aku menghabiskan mereka dalam amarah-Ku.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

In their setting of their threshold by my threshold,.... The threshold is the way of entrance into the house; when men open any other way of entrance into the house of God than he has directed, it is setting up their threshold by his: the Gospel way of entrance into the church of Christ is Christ himself, and faith in him, and a profession of it, and submission to the ordinance of baptism, John 10:1 Acts 2:41 but when men make carnal descent, religious education, mere morality and civility, the way of entrance into church communion; this is opposite to God's way, and is resented by him; this shall not be hereafter:

and their post by my post; which is done when the ordinances of men are substituted in the room of the ordinances of God, or set upon a level with them; when the ordinances of God are changed and altered, or that brought into his worship which he has not commanded; and the commandments of men are taught for the doctrines of God: so the Pharisees set up the traditions of the elders as equal to the written word, and, made it of no effect by them; as the Papists do, by setting up their traditions, under the name of the traditions of the apostles, and of the church, upon a level with the Scriptures; and the same is done when men set up their own doctrines, concerning the Persons in the Godhead, concerning the power and purity of human nature, and the way of redemption; and oppose their own works to the grace of God, in justification, pardon, and salvation; the allusion is to the setting up of altars and idols in the house of the Lord, by his altar, 2 Kings 21:4:

and the wall between me and them; that these sins and abominable practices were a wall of separation between God and them, and caused him to hide himself from them, withdraw his presence, and deny them communion with him, Isaiah 49:2, some render it, "for" or "so that there was but a wall between me and them" s; so near were their thresholds, posts, and altars, to his:

they have even defiled my holy name by their abominations that they have committed: by their false doctrines, idolatrous worship, and immoral lives; such abominations as before mentioned:

wherefore I have consumed them in mine anger; as the Jews are now, and all the antichristian states will be.

s והקיר ביני וביניהם "ita ut paries [tantum esset] inter me et illos", Piscator.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

He said - i. e., God “said.” Both the Septuagint and the Vulgate break this verse into two, so as to make the first half the solemn words of dedication. place a full stop after “forever;” the words mark the distinction between the new and the former sanctuary.

The palace of Solomon abutted upon the southern side of the embankment of the temple-platform; there was but “a wall between Yahweh and them.” When the kings gave themselves up to idolatry, this vicinity was to the temple a pollution and defilement. Thus it has been conjectured that “the garden of Uzza” in which Manasseh and Amon were buried 2Ki 21:18, 2 Kings 21:26, and on which now stands the mosque of Omar, was on the temple area itself; if so, this would explain the mention of “high places” in connection with the defilement by the “carcases of kings,” since the platform of the mosque of Omar at the time of Ezekiel rose to a considerable height above the temple.

Besides this, idolatrous kings of Judah did actually introduce their idolatries into the temple courts themselves (compare 2 Kings 16:11; 2 Kings 21:4).

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Ezekiel 43:8. In their setting of their threshold — They had even gone so far as to set up their idol altars by those of Jehovah; so that their abominable idols were found in the very house of God! therefore, "he consumed them in his anger."
