John Trapp on Ezekiel 7:24

Ver. 24. Wherefore I will bring the worſt of the heathen] velut carnifices, who may plunder you to the life, and take away your lives, Hab. 1.6, 7, 9. The Jews were bad enough, but the Chaldees were worſe, if worſe might be; Malignants above meaſure, Poneropolitans, breathing devils. A hard knot muſt have a harder wedge, as the Proverb is.

I will alſo make the pomp of the ſtrong to ceaſe] I will cruſh the creſts of thoſe Potentates, and lay them low. See Eſa. 14.11, 12.

Their holy places ſhall be defiled] Sacella & lararia corum, their Chappels or Oratories made in or near unto their houſes for divine worſhip.
