from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
I will bring: Ezekiel 21:31, Ezekiel 28:7, Psalms 106:41, Jeremiah 4:7, Jeremiah 12:12, Habakkuk 1:6-10
they shall: That is, "the Chaldeans shall possess the houses of the Jews." The antecedents of pronouns are thus frequently understood in Hebrew poetry. Jeremiah 6:12, Lamentations 5:2
I will also: Ezekiel 33:28, Isaiah 5:14
the pomp: That is, the magnificence of their greatest and haughtiest princes.
their holy places shall be defiled: or, they shall inherit their holy places, Ezekiel 21:2, 2 Chronicles 7:19, Psalms 83:12
Reciprocal: Genesis 47:26 - except Leviticus 26:19 - will break Lamentations 1:17 - commanded Lamentations 2:7 - given up Ezekiel 22:16 - take thine inheritance in thyself Daniel 4:17 - the basest Matthew 24:6 - ye shall hear Acts 25:23 - with
Gill's Notes on the Bible
Wherefore I will bring the worst of the Heathen,.... The Chaldeans, notorious for their cruelty, savageness, and barbarity:
and they shall possess their houses; which they have built, and thought to have lived and died in, and left them to their children for an inheritance; but the Chaldeans, and not their children, became their heirs, and inherited their houses and lands:
I will also make the pomp of the strong to cease; or, "the pride of the mighty ones" n; the noble and the rich; their wealth and substance, by which their pride and grandeur were supported, being takes away from them:
and their holy places shall be defiled; the temple, in which were the holy place, and the holy of holies: or, "they that sanctify them"; the priests that offered sacrifices, which only sanctified to the purifying of the flesh; even these holy persons and things, as well as holy places, would be defiled.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The worst of the pagan - The most cruel and terrible of nations - the Chaldaeans.
The pomp of the strong - Compare Leviticus 26:19 “The strong†are those who pride themselves in imaginary strength.
Their holy places - What elsewhere is called “God’s Holy place†is here “their holy places,†because God disowns the profaned sanctuary. In the marginal rendering “they†must mean “the worst of the pagan.â€
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Ezekiel 7:24. The worst of the heathen — The Chaldeans; the most cruel and idolatrous of all nations.
