Concise Bible Dictionary
:
The
word “
abomination
” is
used
in the O.T. in reference to any iniquity as viewed by a
holy
God
. It
also
designates
what
was unfit to be presented in the service of God, such as an animal
with
any sort of blemish being brought as a
sacrifice
; the price of a
dog
being
put
into the
treasury
, etc. (
Deut. 17:1; 23:18
1
Thou shalt not sacrifice unto the Lord thy God any bullock, or sheep, wherein is blemish, or any evilfavoredness: for that is an abomination unto the Lord thy God. (Deuteronomy 17:1)
18
Thou shalt not bring the hire of a whore, or the price of a dog, into the house of the Lord thy God for any vow: for even both these are abomination unto the Lord thy God. (Deuteronomy 23:18)
). The
divine
service became itself an abomination to God when it had fallen into a mere outward observance or was in association with iniquity (
Isa. 1:13
13
Bring no more vain oblations; incense is an abomination unto me; the new moons and sabbaths, the calling of assemblies, I cannot away with; it is iniquity, even the solemn meeting. (Isaiah 1:13)
;
Prov. 28:9
9
He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer shall be abomination. (Proverbs 28:9)
). But
idolatry
was the special thing that was declared to be an abomination to
Jehovah
. The
idols
themselves are thus designated: (
2 Kings 23:13
13
And the high places that were before Jerusalem, which were on the right hand of the mount of corruption, which Solomon the king of Israel had builded for Ashtoreth the abomination of the Zidonians, and for Chemosh the abomination of the Moabites, and for Milcom the abomination of the children of Ammon, did the king defile. (2 Kings 23:13)
;
Isaiah 44:19
19
And none considereth in his heart, neither is there knowledge nor understanding to say, I have burned part of it in the fire; yea, also I have baked bread upon the coals thereof; I have roasted flesh, and eaten it: and shall I make the residue thereof an abomination? shall I fall down to the stock of a tree? (Isaiah 44:19)
); and Ezekiel 8 shows the idolatry that was carried on in secret, and the greater “abomination,” of bringing it actually into the inner court of the
Lord
’s
house
, between the porch and the
altar
! The word is but seldom used in the
New
Testament
and applies then to
wickedness
in general.
