rwp@Matthew:24:15 @{The abomination of desolation} (\to bdelugma ts eremses\). An allusion to strkjv@Daniel:9:27; strkjv@11:31; strkjv@12:11|. Antiochus Epiphanes erected an altar to Zeus on the altar of Jehovah (1Macc. strkjv@1:54,59; strkjv@6:7; 2Macc. strkjv@6:1-5). The desolation in the mind of Jesus is apparently the Roman army (Luke:21:20|) in the temple, an application of the words of Daniel to this dread event. The verb \bdelussomai\ is to feel nausea because of stench, to abhor, to detest. Idolatry was a stench to God (Luke:16:15; strkjv@Revelation:17:4|). Josephus tells us that the Romans burned the temple and offered sacrifices to their ensigns placed by the eastern gate when they proclaimed Titus as Emperor.
