5 And I will lay the dead bodies of the people of Israel before their idols, and I will scatter your bones around your altars.

Matthew Henry's Commentary on Ezekiel 6:5

Commentary on Ezekiel 6:1-7

(Read Ezekiel 6:1-7)

War desolates persons, places, and things esteemed most sacred. God ruins idolatries even by the hands of idolaters. It is just with God to make that a desolation, which we make an idol. The superstitions to which many trust for safety, often cause their ruin. And the day is at hand, when idols and idolatry will be as thoroughly destroyed from the professedly Christian church as they were from among the Jews.
