Gill's Notes on the Bible
And they broke down the temple of Baal,.... Which some take to be Belus, others Saturn, others the sun, which seems most probable:
and broke down the house of Baal; his temple, demolished it:
and made it a draught house until this day; a common sewer, a jakes; a fit place for dunghill gods to be thrown into, and an idol temple to be turned into.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
And they brake down the image of Baal - The other images, it appears, were not images of Baal, but of inferior deities. The image of Baal, which was âbroken down,â and not burned, would seem to have been of stone, perhaps erected in front of the temple.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 27. Made it a draught house — A place for human excrement; so all the versions understand it. Nothing could be more degrading than this; he made it a public necessary.
