And I brought you into a plentiful country,.... "Into the land of Carmel", as in the Hebrew text; that is,
"into the land of Israel, which was planted as Carmel,''
as the Targum paraphrases it; with wheat, barley, vines, fig trees, pomegranates, and olives; a land flowing with milk and honey, Deuteronomy 8:8, so Ben Melech:
to eat the fruit thereof and the goodness thereof; of vineyards and oliveyards, which they had not planted, and for which they had never laboured, Joshua 24:13,
but when ye entered ye defiled my land; which the Lord had chosen above all lands, where he would have a temple built for his worship, and where he would cause his Shechinah or glorious Majesty to dwell; but this they defiled by their sins and transgressions, and particularly by their idolatry, as follows:
that made mine heritage an abomination; by devoting it to the worship of idols, as the Targum paraphrases it.

plentiful--literally, "a land of Carmel," or "well-cultivated land": a garden land, in contrast to the "land of deserts" (Jeremiah 2:6).
defiled--by idolatries (Judges 2:10-17; Psalm 78:58-59; Psalm 106:38).
you . . . ye--change to the second person from the third, "they" (Jeremiah 2:6), in order to bring home the guilt to the living generation.

My land - Consecrated to my name; by your idols and many other abominations.
