Ezekiel 8:11
_ _ seventy men — the seventy members composing the Sanhedrim, or great council of the nation, the origination of which we find in the seventy elders, representatives of the congregation, who went up with Moses to the mount to behold the glory of Jehovah, and to witness the secret transactions relating to the establishment of the covenant; also, in the seventy elders appointed to share the burden of the people with Moses. How awfully it aggravates the national sin, that the seventy, once admitted to the Lord’s secret council (Psalms 25:14), should now, “in the dark,” enter “the secret” of the wicked (Genesis 49:6), those judicially bound to suppress idolatry being the ringleaders of it!
_ _ Jaazaniah — perhaps chief of the seventy: son of Shaphan, the scribe who read to Josiah the book of the law; the spiritual privileges of the son (2 Kings 22:10-14) increased his guilt. The very name means, “Jehovah hears,” giving the lie to the unbelief which virtually said (Ezekiel 9:9), “The Lord seeth us not,” etc. (compare Psalms 10:11, Psalms 10:14; Psalms 50:21; Psalms 94:7, Psalms 94:9). The offering of incense belonged not to the elders, but to the priests; this usurpation added to the guilt of the former.
_ _ cloud of incense — They spared no expense for their idols. Oh, that there were the same liberality toward the cause of God! |
Ezekiel 8:11
Seventy — Heads of the tribes or families, who should have been examples of true religion, not ringleaders in idolatry. Shaphan — Mentioned 2 Kings 22:9. Shaphan was forward in reforming under Josiah and his son is as forward in corrupting the worship of God. |
Ezekiel 8:11
And there stood before them seventy (l) men of the elders of the house of Israel, and in the midst of them stood Jaazaniah the son of Shaphan, with every man his censer in his hand; and (m) a thick cloud of incense went up.
(l) Thus they who would have kept all the rest in the fear and true service of God were the ringleaders of all abomination, and by their example pulled others from God.
(m) It was in such abundance. |
