Ezekiel 20:28

Study

       

28 And I had brought them into the land, for which I lifted up my hand to give it them: they saw every high hill, and every shady tree, and there they sacrificed their victims: and there they presented the provocation of their offerings, and there they set their sweet odours, and poured forth their libations.

Commentarius

 

Pour out

  

'Pouring out the vials upon the earth, which contained the plagues,' in Revelation 16:1, signifies influx of the reformed into the church, or into people who study and receive the doctrine of justification by faith alone.

(Notae: Apocalypse Explained 16; Apocalypse Revealed 676)

Transgressions bound up

  

'Bound up transgressions,' as in Lamentations 1:14, stands for falsities approaching interior or rational things.
