Jeremiah 7:30
For the children of Judah have done evil in my sight, saith
the Lord
Meaning not a single action only, but a series, a course of evil actions; and those openly, in a daring manner, not only before men, but in the sight of God, and in contempt of him, like the men of Sodom, ( Genesis 13:13 ) : they have set their abominations in the house which is called by my
name, to defile it;
that is, set their idols in the temple; here Manasseh set up a graven image of the grove, ( 2 Kings 21:7 ) which was done, as if it was done on purpose to defile it.
