Ezekiel 6:6
"In all your dwellingplaces the cities shall be laid waste, and the high places shall be desolate; that your altars may be laid waste and made desolate, and your idols may be broken and cease, and your images may be cut down, and your works may be abolished."

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

In all your dwelling places your cities shall be laid waste,.... Which denotes that the desolation should be general, wherever they had cities and places to dwell in; the idolatry being universal,

as is said in Jer 2:28 ; and the high places shall be desolate; meaning such as were in cities; as, before, such as were built upon mountains and hills; see Kg2 23:5 ; that your altars may be laid waste and desolate; as they must be, the cities being destroyed in which they were set up: and your idols may be broken and cease, and your images may be cut down; such as were made of gold and silver, or of wood and stone; the same words are used for them as in Eze 6:4 ; and your works may be abolished; not only the works of their hands, but of their brain; whatever they had devised, and was contrary to the pure word and worship of God.
