The LXX. has the singular in this verse ( ) and the plural in 27. As the worship of Astarte was combined with that of Baal, we can understand that in such a splendid temple as that which Ahab and Jezebel had erected, there would be more pillars (or sacred obelisks) than one, though one would be specially known as ‘the pillar of Baal’.<\/p>\n and burnt them<\/em> ] So that these more numerous pillars must have been of wood. Probably they were of less size than the chief obelisk.<\/p>\n The images – <\/B>Or pillars of wood. The Phoenician pillar idols were mere columns, obelisks, or posts, destitute of any shaping into the semblance of humanity (compare 1Ki 14:23<\/span> note).<\/P><\/p>\n Heb. it<\/I>, i.e. the collection of the images, or each of them. <\/P> <\/p>\n And they brought forth the images out of the house of Baal, and burnt them.<\/strong> Lesser images, the images of other deities, or what were placed as decorations of the temple.<\/p>\n They then fetched the columns ( ) out of the temple and burned them (the suffix in refers to the plural taken as an abstract noun, as in 2Ki 3:3<\/span>; cf. Ewald, 317, a<\/em>.). They then broke in pieces the , column of Baal, i.e., the real image of Baal, probably a conical stone dedicated to Baal, whereas the , which were burned, were wooden columns as or of Baal (see Movers, Phniz<\/em>. i. p. 674). <\/p>\n (26) The images.<\/strong>Rather, the pillars<\/em>; which were of wood, and had a sacred significance. (Comp. Hos. 3:4<\/span>.) In primitive times a pillar was the distinguishing mark of a holy place. Idolatrous pillars were commanded to be destroyed (Exo. 23:24<\/span>), but most critics think that pillars to Jehovah were quite allowable till the time of Hezekiah or Josiah, to which they assign the Book of Deuteronomy. (Comp. Deu. 16:21-22<\/span>.) At any rate, the prophet (Isaiah) gives an implicit sanction to the erection of a sacred pillar in Egypt (Cheyne<\/em>s Note on Isa. 19:19<\/span>). The LXX. has the singular here ( ) and the plural in the next verse.

And brake down the house of Baal As, no doubt, they did the rest of the houses of Baal in Israel. And made it a draught-house A sink or common shore; that the remembrance of it might be blotted out or made infamous. Thus was the worship of Baal quite destroyed, at least for the present, out of Israel, though it had once prevailed so far, that there were but seven thousand, of all the thousands of Israel, that had not bowed the knee to Baal.
