Commentary on Ezekiel 20:292 voices
“What is the high place - מה הבמה mah habbamah, ‘what is the high place?’ What is it good for? Its being a high place shows it to be a place of idolatry. I called it במה bamah, to mark it with infamy; but ye continue to frequent it, even while it is called במה bamah, to the present day!”
Adam Clarke · Commentary on the BibleEvangelical
“They are wedded to their high places; even in the best reigns those were not taken away; you could not prevail to take away the name of Bamah--the high place, out of their mouths, but still they would have that in the place of their worship. The sin and the sinner are with difficulty parted.”
Matthew Henry · Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710Puritan
