Ezekiel 13:10

13:10

led <02937> [seduced.]

well ...... well <07965> [Peace.]

builds <01129> [and one.]

These false prophets pretend to be a wall of defence; but their wall is bad, and their morter is worse. One gives a lying vision; another pledges himself that it is true; and the people believe what they say, and trust not in God, nor turn from their sins.

wall <02434> [a wall. or, a slight wall. others.]


Ezekiel 8:17

8:17

trivial <07043> [Is it a light, etc. or, Is there any thing lighter than to commit, etc. for.]

putting <07971> [they put.]

So the Vulgate has, {applicant ramum ad nares suas,} "they apply the branch to their nose;" which Jerome explains by "a branch of the palm tree with which they adored the idols;" and it seems plainly to allude to the Magian fire-worshippers, who, Strabo tells us, held a little bunch of twigs in their hand, when praying before the fire.
