The meaning of Desolation, Abomination of in the Bible
(From Easton's Bible Dictionary)
(Matthew 24:15; Mark 13:14; Compare Luke 21:20), is interpreted of the eagles, the standards of the Roman army, which were an abomination to the Jews. These standards, rising over the site of the temple, were a sign that the holy place had fallen under the idolatrous Romans. The references are to Daniel 9:27. (See ABOMINATION .)
