Jeremiah 7:12 Go ye to my place in Silo, where my name dwelt from the beginning: and see what I did to it for the wickedness of my people Israel:

Beginning, under Josue. (Haydock) --- The sins of a few priests caused this place to be abandoned, (1 Kings 2:22., and 3:4., and Psalm 77:60.) and shall the crimes of a whole people escape? (Calmet) --- It is true, that place and Jerusalem were once sanctified: but the people being criminal, God retires. (Worthington)
