Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Ezekiel 16:19

_ _ My meat ... I gave — (Hosea 2:8).

_ _ set it before them — as a minchah or “meat offering” (Leviticus 2:1).

_ _ a sweet savour — literally, “a savor of rest,” that is, whereby they might be propitiated, and be at peace (“rest”) with you; how ridiculous to seek to propitiate gods of wood!

_ _ thus it was — The fact cannot be denied, for I saw it, and say it was so, saith Jehovah.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Ezekiel 16:15-34.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Ezekiel 16:19

For a sweet savour — To gain the favour of the idol. Thus it was — All which is undeniable.

Hosea 2:8-13 For she did not know that I gave her corn, and wine, and oil, and multiplied her silver and gold, [which] they prepared for Baal. ...

a sweet savour:
Heb. a savour of rest,
Genesis 8:21 And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake; for the imagination of man's heart [is] evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done.
