George Leo Haydock, on Ezek 11:16

“Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Because I have removed them far off among the Gentiles, and because I have scattered them among the countries: I will be to them a little sanctuary in the countries whither they are come.”

“A little. Hebrew, “for a short time, a sanctuary,” or temple. They shall find all things in me. The Christian Church was never more pure than during the first persecutions, when her children could not assemble freely, or build temples. (Calmet) — God will never totally abandon her, Jeremias iv. 27., &c. (Worthington)”
