Barnes's Jeremiah 7:11 Bible Commentary
Robbers - literally, tearers, those who rob with violence. The temple was the place which sheltered them. It had been consecrated to God. Now that it harbors miscreants, must it not as inevitably be destroyed as a den of robbers would be by any righteous ruler?
Wesley's Jeremiah 7:11 Bible Commentary
7:11 A den - Do you look upon this house as a sanctuary for robbers and murderers.
