(Compare 1 Maccabeus 1:57). It was the abomination of the devastation of Jerusalem. The same language is used in Daniel 9:27 (compare Matthew 24:15), where the reference probably refers to the picture-crowned banners that the Romans erected at the eastern gate of the temple (70 AD) and to which they paid idolatrous honors. „Almost the entire religion of the Roman camp was to worship the flag, swear by the flag, and prefer the flag to all other gods.“ These signs were an „abomination“ for the Jews, the „abominations of devastation.“ 8263.

An abomination speaks for the conflicts between the souls of the people. Christians must seize every opportunity to communicate in a way that leads others to listen to the message that God has placed in our hearts. Pharaoh was so moved by the fourth plague that, while rejecting Moses` request, he offered a compromise and granted the Israelites permission to hold their feast and offer their sacrifices in Egypt. This permission could not be accepted because Moses said they were to sacrifice „the abominations of the Egyptians“ (Exodus 8:26); that is, the cow or the ox, which all the Egyptians considered sacred and which they considered scandalous to kill him. Leviticus 7:18If part of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings is eaten on the third day, it will not be accepted and will not be attributed to the one who offers it.
