ExplanationCommentary
Verse 8. The temple was filled with smoke, and so forth as in the time of Solomon. 2 Chronicles 7. Witham.—The vials are given to the Angels by one of the four living creatures, that is, by a prophet, because at that time the effects had not happened, but were to happen in time to come, and are therefore announced by way of prophecy; and the temple was filled with smoke, manifesting first the majesty of God, and secondly his power.
