Isaiah 66:17
_ _ in ... gardens — Hebrew and the Septuagint rather require, “for (entering into) gardens,” namely, to sacrifice there [Maurer].
_ _ behind one tree — rather, “following one,” that is, some idol or other, which, from contempt, he does not name [Maurer]. Vitringa, etc., think the Hebrew for “one,” Ahhadh, to be the name of the god; called Adad (meaning One) in Syria (compare Acts 17:23). The idol’s power was represented by inclined rays, as of the sun shining on the earth. Gesenius translates, “following one,” namely, Hierophant (“priest”), who led the rest in performing the sacred rites.
_ _ in ... midst — namely, of the garden (see on Isaiah 65:3, Isaiah 65:4).
_ _ mouse — legally unclean (Leviticus 11:29) because it was an idol to the heathen (see on Isaiah 37:36; 1 Samuel 6:4). Translate, “the field mouse,” or “dormouse” [Bochart]. The Pharisees with their self-righteous purifications, and all mere formalists, are included in the same condemnation, described in language taken from the idolatries prevalent in Isaiah’s times. |
Isaiah 66:17
Gardens — In which they worshipped idols. In the midst — Behind one of the trees, or one by one behind the trees. The abominations — All those beasts forbidden the Jews for meat. God will not only destroy gross idolaters, but all those who make no conscience of yielding obedience to the law of God in such things as seemed to them of a minute nature, and such as they easily might have obeyed. |
Isaiah 66:17
They that sanctify (r) themselves, and purify themselves in the gardens behind one [tree] in the midst, eating (s) swine's flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse, shall be consumed together, saith the LORD.
(r) Meaning, the hypocrites.
(s) By which are meant them that maliciously transgressed the law, by eating beasts forbidden, even to the mouse which nature abhors. |
- sanctify:
Isaiah 1:29 For they shall be ashamed of the oaks which ye have desired, and ye shall be confounded for the gardens that ye have chosen.
Isaiah 65:3-4 A people that provoketh me to anger continually to my face; that sacrificeth in gardens, and burneth incense upon altars of brick; ... Which remain among the graves, and lodge in the monuments, which eat swine's flesh, and broth of abominable [things is in] their vessels;
|
- behind one tree in the midst:
- or, one after another, eating.
Leviticus 11:2-8 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, These [are] the beasts which ye shall eat among all the beasts that [are] on the earth. ... Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase shall ye not touch; they [are] unclean to you.
Deuteronomy 14:3-8 Thou shalt not eat any abominable thing. ... And the swine, because it divideth the hoof, yet cheweth not the cud, it [is] unclean unto you: ye shall not eat of their flesh, nor touch their dead carcase.
