Things were pretty bad in the time of Ezekiel.
Ezekiel 8: NASB
5Then He said to me, “Son of man, raise your eyes now toward the north.” So I raised my eyes toward the north, and behold, to the north of the altar gate
wasthis idol of jealousy at the entrance.
6And He said to me, “Son of man, do you see what they are doing, the great abominations which the house of Israel are committing here, so that I would be far from My sanctuary? But yet you will see still greater abominations.”
7Then He brought me to the entrance of the court, and when I looked, behold, a hole in the wall.
8He said to me, “Son of man, now dig through the wall.” So I dug through the wall, and behold, an entrance.
9And He said to me, “Go in and see the wicked abominations that they are committing here.”
10So I entered and looked, and behold, every form of creeping things and beasts
anddetestable things, with all the idols of the house of Israel, were carved on the wall all around.
11Standing in front of them were seventy elders of the house of Israel, with Jaazaniah the son of Shaphan standing among them, each man with his censer in his hand and the fragrance of the cloud of incense rising.
12Then He said to me, “Son of man, do you see what the elders of the house of Israel are committing in the dark, each man in the room of his carved images? For they say, ‘The LORD does not see us; the LORD has forsaken the land.’”
13And He said to me, “Yet you will see still greater abominations which they are committing.”
