Ezekiel 8:17-18

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.


8:18

act <06213> [will I also.]

shouted <07121> [and though.]
