Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Ezekiel 8:6

_ _ that I should go far off from my sanctuary — “that I should (be compelled by their sin to) go far off from my sanctuary” — (Ezekiel 10:18); the sure precursor of its destruction.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Ezekiel 8:1-6.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Ezekiel 8:6

They — The generality of the Jews. Great abominations — The notorious idolatries. Here — In this court, in view of my temple. Far off — Not that they designed this, but no other could be expected.
