Ezekiel 8
Overview
8:1 Ezekiel, in a vision of God at Jerusalem,
8:5 is shewn the image of jealousy;
8:7 the chambers of imagery;
8:13 the mourners for Tammuz;
8:16 the worshippers toward the sun;
8:17 God's wrath for their idolatry.

When rubbed it is highly endowed with electricity; a name which the moderns have formed from its Greek nameηλεκτρον. But, as amber becomes dim as soon as it feels the fire, and is speedily consumed, it is probable that the original chashmal which Bochart derives from the Chaldee nechash copper, and melala gold, was a mixed metal, similar to that which the Greeks called ηλεκτρον, electrum, as the LXX and Vulgate render, from its resemblance to amber in colour.Reciprocal Philippians 2:6 - thought Verse 3 he put Ezekiel 2:9; Daniel 5:5, 10:10, 10:18 the spirit Ezekiel 3:14, 11:1, 11:24, 40:2; 1 Kings 18:12; 2 Kings 2:16; Acts 8:39; 2 Corinthians 12:2-4; Revelation 1:10-20, 4:2-11 to the door Ezekiel 8:5; 2 Kings 16:14 the image Ezekiel 5:11, 7:20; 2 Kings 21:7; Jeremiah 7:30, 32:34 provoketh Exodus 20:5, 34:14; Deuteronomy 4:24, 5:9, 6:15, 32:16, 32:21; Joshua 24:19; Psalm 78:58; 1 Corinthians 10:21, 10:22 Reciprocal Deuteronomy 29:20 - his jealousy; 1 Kings 14:9 - to provoke; 22:53 - provoked; 2 Chronicles 29:5 - carry forth; Ezekiel 1:1 - I saw; 1:8 - General; 3:12 - spirit; 37:1 - carried; 43:5 - the spirit; 43:8 - setting; Zephaniah 1:18 - the fire; Matthew 4:1 - of the spirit; Revelation 17:3 - he carried; 21:10 - he carried Verse 4 Ezekiel 1:26-28, 3:22, 3:23, 9:3, 10:1-4, 11:22, 11:23, 43:2-4; Exodus 25:22, 40:34, 40:35; 2 Corinthians 3:18, 4:4-6; Habakkuk 1:3 Reciprocal Isaiah 3:8 - to provoke; Jeremiah 3:2 - Lift; Ezekiel 1:28 - This; 43:3 - according to the appearance Verse 5 lift Jeremiah 3:2; Zechariah 5:5-11 at the Ezekiel 8:3; Psalm 48:2 Reciprocal Leviticus 1:11 - he shall; Deuteronomy 29:20 - his jealousy; 2 Chronicles 36:14 - polluted; Jeremiah 7:30 - they; 23:11 - in; 32:34 - General; Ezekiel 5:11 - thou hast; 9:6 - and begin; 23:38 - they have; 40:45 - whose Verse 6 seest Ezekiel 8:12, 8:17; Jeremiah 3:6, 7:17 even Ezekiel 8:9, 8:17, 5:11, 7:20-22, 23:38, 23:39; 2 Kings 23:4-6; Proverbs 5:14; Jeremiah 7:30, 23:11; 32:34 that I Ezekiel 10:19, 11:22; Deuteronomy 31:16-18; 2 Chronicles 36:14-17; Psalm 78:60; Jeremiah 26:6; Lamentations 2:6, 2:7 greater Ezekiel 8:11, 8:14, 8:16 Reciprocal Isaiah 26:21 - Lord; 55:6 - while he is near; Jeremiah 11:18 - the Lord; Ezekiel 8:13 - greater; 8:15 - Hast; 10:15 - lifted; 14:23 - that I have not; 18:12 - hath committed; 33:29 - because; Hosea 5:15 - return; Amos 8:2 - Amos; Matthew 24:1 - departed; Mark 13:1 - out Verse 7 1 Kings 7:12; 2 Kings 21:5 Reciprocal Deuteronomy 27:15 - and putteth; 2 Chronicles 33:5 - in the two; Ezekiel 7:20 - but; 8:12 - in the; 40:14 - the court; Revelation 14:1 - I looked Verse 8 Job 34:22; Isaiah 29:15; Jeremiah 2:34 *marg. 23:24; Amos 9:2, 9:3 Reciprocal Isaiah 57:8 - the doors; 59:12 - our transgressions; Ezekiel 8:12 - in the Verse 9 that they Ezekiel 20:8 Reciprocal Genesis 6:5 - every imagination; 2 Chronicles 29:5 - carry forth; Jeremiah 1:16 - and have; Ezekiel 8:6 - even; 8:15 - greater; 16:2 - abominations; 22:2 - her abominations; Mark 11:11 - when; Romans 4:2 - he hath Verse 10 and beholdThese images portrayed on the wall were no doubt the objects of Egyptian idolatry, the ox, ape, crocodile, ibis, beetle, etc., as we find those idols were painted on the walls of the tombs of kings and nobles.every Exodus 20:4; Leviticus 11:10-12, 11:29-31, 11:42-44; Deuteronomy 4:18, 14:3, 14:7, 14:8; Isaiah 57:6-10; Jeremiah 2:26, 2:27, 3:9, 16:18; Romans 1:23 Reciprocal 2 Chronicles 15:8 - abominable idols; Jeremiah 44:4 - this; Ezekiel 11:12 - but; 16:26 - with the; 23:14 - portrayed; Revelation 13:14 - they Verse 11 seventy Exodus 24:1, 24:9; Numbers 11:16, 11:25; Jeremiah 5:5, 19:1; Daniel 9:8 Shaphan 2 Kings 22:3, 22:8, 22:12, 22:14, 25:22; 2 Chronicles 34:20; Jeremiah 26:24, 29:3, 36:10 every Numbers 16:17, 16:35; 2 Chronicles 26:16, 26:19; Jeremiah 7:9 Reciprocal 2 Kings 22:9 - Shaphan; 2 Chronicles 34:8 - sent Shaphan; Jeremiah 23:11 - in; 42:1 - Jezaniah; 52:27 - the king; Ezekiel 8:6 - greater; 8:12 - ancients; 9:6 - at the Verse 12 hast Ezekiel 8:6, 8:15, 8:17 ancients 8:11, 14:1, 20:1; Ephesians 5:12 in the Ezekiel 8:7, 8:8; Job 24:13-17; John 3:19, 3:20 The Lord seeth Ezekiel 9:9; Job 22:12, 22:13; Psalm 73:11, 94:7-10; Isaiah 29:15 Reciprocal Genesis 6:5 - every imagination; 2 Kings 17:9 - secretly; Job 24:15 - No eye; Psalm 10:11 - God; 64:5 - Who; 86:14 - and have; 90:8 - Thou; Isaiah 3:2 - the ancient; 3:8 - because; 28:15 - We have; 44:13 - that it may; 47:10 - thou hast said; Jeremiah 16:17 - General; 19:1 - the ancients of the people; 23:24 - hide; Ezekiel 21:14 - entereth; Amos 8:2 - Amos; Zephaniah 1:12 - The Lord; Malachi 2:17 - Where Verse 13 greater Ezekiel 8:6, 8:15; Jeremiah 9:3; 2 Timothy 3:13
