38<\/strong>. the same day<\/em> ] The phrase is more fully explained in Eze 23:39<\/em><\/span>. LXX. omits in both places.<\/p>\n The same day – <\/B>The day when they made their offerings. See Eze 23:39<\/span>.<\/P> <\/p>\n Verse 38<\/span>. They have defiled my sanctuary<\/B><\/I>] By placing idols there.<\/P> <\/p>\n This; which is declared in the following words, it was some great injury or affront done to God. <\/P> Defiled my sanctuary; my holy things, house, altar, sacrifices, and oblations; one part of the temple put for all parts of the holy things of God. <\/P> In the same day; when they had newly polluted themselves with most horrid crimes, idolatry and murder, they thrust into the temple; whereas by the law, if they had been but unclean by touch of a dead body, they must have been cleansed by sacrifices before they ought to come into company with the Jews. <\/P> Profaned my sabbaths, by offering sacrifices to idols, and doing that on those days which God, nature, and all civil nations abhor, only the devil is pleased with, who is a murderer from the beginning, and promotes such bloody cruelties. <\/P> <\/p>\n 38. the same day<\/B>On the veryday that they had burned their children to Molech in the valley ofGehenna, they shamelessly and hypocritically presented themselves asworshippers in Jehovah’s temple (Jer 7:9<\/span>;Jer 7:10<\/span>).<\/P><\/p>\n Moreover this they have done unto me<\/strong>,….. The following piece of wickedness, which was very provoking to the Lord:<\/p>\n they have defiled my sanctuary in the same day<\/strong>; as they caused their children to pass through the tire to their idols, by entering into the sanctuary when they had so done, and were thus defiled, and by offering sacrifices to their idols in it; or under pretence of serving the Lord, when they had just been guilty of murder and idolatry:<\/p>\n and have profaned my sabbaths<\/strong>; not only by doing their own worldly and civil business, but by slaying their infants on those days, and sacrificing them to idols.<\/p>\n (38) In the same day.<\/strong>This is explained more fully in Eze. 23:39<\/span>. Emphasis is laid upon the fact that they worshipped in the sanctuary of Jehovah in the same day that they offered their children to their idols, because the passing directly from the one to the other showed an utter disregard of the commands of the Lord, and an entire want of appreciation of His character and holiness. The figure in this and the following verses is partly dropped to bring out better the reality.<\/p>\n “Moreover they have done this to me. They have defiled my sanctuary in the same day, and have profaned my sabbaths. For when they had slain their children to their idols, they then came the same day into my sanctuary to profane it. And lo, thus have they done in the midst of my house.”<\/p>\n Guilt piled on guilt. Not only had they offered their children to Molech, they had done it on the sabbath and had then gone to God’s sanctuary as though they had done nothing wrong, indeed no doubt feeling how holy they had been. This was syncretism with a vengeance, for they were so far wrong that they no doubt expected Yahweh to be pleased with what they had done. So can superstition destroy true religion. But God was far from pleased. He was furiously angry. All that He had patiently taught them had been thrown aside. Northern Israel was involved in the defiling of the sanctuary because what remained of them had now found refuge in Judah and they were equally guilty.<\/p>\n Eze 23:38 Moreover this they have done unto me: they have defiled my sanctuary in the same day, and have profaned my sabbaths.<\/p>\n Ver. 38. They have defiled my sanctuary in the same day.<\/strong> ] When they had done evil as they could, they exercised mine external worship that they might seem religious. So Isa 66:3<\/span> .<\/p>\n defiled . . . profaned. Reference to Pentateuch (Lev 19:31). App-92. Compare Eze 22:8. <\/p>\n they have: Eze 7:20, Eze 8:5-16, 2Ki 21:4, 2Ki 21:7, 2Ki 23:11, 2Ki 23:12 <\/p>\n and have: Eze 20:13, Eze 20:24, Eze 22:8, Neh 13:17, Neh 13:18, Jer 17:27 <\/p>\n Reciprocal: Lev 15:31 – that they Lev 20:3 – to defile Eze 8:6 – even Eze 23:39 – thus Eze 43:7 – no more 1Co 3:17 – any<\/p>\n Eze 23:38. These wicked women went so far as to bring their immoral practice into the house provided by their husband, which is the meaning of the phrase defiled my sanctuary, for that was the house provided to shelter the sacred furniture.<\/p>\n They also made the temple unclean (cf. Exo 20:24-26) and treated the Sabbath as any other day of the week (cf. Exo 20:8-11; Lev 19:3; Lev 19:30). On the same days that they practiced child sacrifice they entered the temple to worship Yahweh. This amounted to treating Molech and Yahweh as though they were equal.<\/p>\n Moreover this they have done unto me: they have defiled my sanctuary in the same day, and have profaned my sabbaths. 38. the same day ] The phrase is more fully explained in Eze 23:39.
