(Devarim, Ibid.) "and he abased the Rock of his salvation": as in (Ezekiel 8:16) "And He brought me to the inner courtyard of the Temple of the L-rd, and behold, at the entrance of the sanctuary of the L-rd … twenty-five men, their backs to the sanctuary of the L-rd, etc."

R. Dostai b. R. Yehudah says: Read if not "vayenabel" ("and he abased"), but "veyinavel" ("and there be abased"), as in (Jeremiah 14:21) "Do not reject us, for the sake of Your name; let there not be abased the throne of Your glory."
