So I asked them: ‘What is this high place to which you go?’ (And to this day it is called Bamah.)
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
