Commentary on Ezekiel 8:6
"He said furthermore unto me, Son of man, seest thou what they do? even the great abominations that the house of Israel committeth here, that I should go far off from my sanctuary?" God reveals temple corruption forcing His departure. The rhetorical question emphasizes that Israel's sin, not divine caprice, drives God away. Persistent idolatry in the very place dedicated to God's worship represents ultimate covenant treachery. Holiness cannot coexist with abomination. This pattern warns: God withdraws His presence from professing churches that embrace idolatry or immorality.
