Clarke's Ezekiel 16:18 Bible Commentary
Hast set mine oil and mine incense before them - It appears that they had made use of the holy vestments, and the different kinds of offerings which belonged to the Lord, to honor their idols.
Barnes's Ezekiel 16:18 Bible Commentary
Mine oil and mine incense - The oil was the produce of the land, the incense received in exchange for such produce. Both were the gifts of Yahweh and belonged to Him; yet the oil Exodus 25:6; Exodus 29:40 and the incense Exodus 30:34, prepared for the service of God, were used in idol-worship. In nature worship the worshippers were especially lavish in vegetable products like incense.
Wesley's Ezekiel 16:18 Bible Commentary
16:18 Coveredst - Didst clothe the images thou hadst made.Set mine oil - In lamps to burn before them.
