Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerse 7. - Her palaces; i.e. those of the daughter of Zion, especially "high buildings" (this is the true meaning of 'armon) of the temple. They have made a noise, etc. Comp. Psalm 74:3, "Thine enemies roar in the midst of thy place of meeting." The passages are parallel, though, whether the calamities referred to are the same in beth, cannot a priori be determined. The shouts of triumph of the foe are likened to the festal shouts of the temple worshippers (comp. Isaiah 30:29; Amos 5:24).
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(7) Hath cast off . . . hath abhorred.--The two verbs are used in a like context in Psalm 89:38.His sanctuary.--The word points to the Holy of Holies, and "the walls of her palaces" are therefore those of the Temple rather than of the city.They have made a noise.--The shouts of the enemies in their triumph, perhaps even the shouts of their worship, had taken the place of the hallelujahs of the "solemn feast."
