Ezekiel 8:4
"And, behold, the glory of the God of Israel was there, according to the vision that I saw in the plain."

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

And, behold, the glory of the God of Israel was there,.... In the temple, between the cherubim, where the Shechinah or the glory of the divine Majesty dwelt; for as

yet he had not removed, though provoked to it, and as he afterwards did; or he was here to destroy the idols, and both city and temple, for the idolatry of the people; or this is here mentioned, to show the baseness and wickedness of the people, that they should place an idol where the Lord himself was: according to the vision that I saw in the plain; it was the same glorious Person he saw in the temple whom he had before seen in the plain, Eze 3:22 ; and that was the same he had seen in the vision by the river Chebar, Eze 1:3 .
