Ezekiel 8:3

And — This, and all the passages to the end of the 16th verse, was done in vision only. Inner gate — To the door of the gate of the inner court. The north — The temple courts had four gates towards the four quarters, and this was the north gate, which opened into the great court where Ahaz had set up his Damascen altar, and where the idols were set up. The image — Baal, which Manasseh had set up, Josiah had destroyed, but succeeding kings had again set it up. Jealousy — Because it was so notorious an affront to God, who had married Israel to himself.
