Ezekiel 7:22
"My face will I turn also from them, and they shall pollute my secret place: for the robbers shall enter into it, and defile it."

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

My face will one turn also from them,.... Deny them his presence, and withdraw his protection from them; show them no favour, nor afford them any help and succour in their distress, when they cry

unto him; so the Targum, "I will cause my Shechinah to remove from them:'' unless the Chaldeans are meant, as some think, whose robberies and ravages the Lord would wink at, and not restrain, but suffer them to plunder and spoil at pleasure: since it follows, and they shall pollute my secret place; the holy of holies, by going into it, which none but the high priest might do, and he but once a year; though the Targum understands this of the Jews, and makes it to be a reason of what is threatened in the preceding clause, rendering it thus, "because they have profaned the land of the house of my Shechinah:'' for the robbers shall enter into it, and defile it; as did the king of Babylon and his army; and afterwards, in the second temple, Antiochus, Pompey, and Titus Vespasian.
