from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
Those, says Matthew Henry, who turn their backs upon God's ordinances, may truly be said to forsake God himself. The lamps were not lighted, and incense was not burnt: there are still such neglects as these, and they are no less culpable, if the Word be not duly read and opened, answering to the lighting of the lamps, and if prayers and praises be not duly offered up, which was signified by the burning of incense. 2 Chronicles 29:3, 2 Chronicles 28:24, Leviticus 24:2-8, 2 Kings 16:17, 2 Kings 16:18, Malachi 1:10
Reciprocal: 2 Chronicles 29:17 - the porch Nehemiah 6:10 - let us shut Ezekiel 41:2 - the door

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Also they have shut up the doors of the porch,.... So that there was no entering into the temple, 2 Chronicles 28:24
and put out the lamps; for the priests not being able to go in morning and evening to light them, and dress them, they in course went out; the Jews say n, that on the eighteenth of Ab, which answers to part of July and August, the western lamp was extinct in the days of Ahaz, for which a fast was kept on that day:
and have not burnt incense, nor offered burnt offerings in the holy place unto the God of Israel; but had done these in the high places to idols, 2 Chronicles 28:3.
