Geneva Study Bible - Ezekiel 21:13
21:13 Because [it is] a trial, {l} and what if [the sword] despise even the rod? it shall be no [more], saith the Lord GOD.(l) Ezekiel moved with compassion thus complains fearing the destruction of the kingdom which God had confirmed to David and his posterity by promise, which promise God performed although here it seemed to man’s eye that it would utterly perish. read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 21:1-32
CLOSE OF PART ONE Lack of space makes it necessary to crowd the remainder of Part 1 into a single lesson, but nothing vital to its general understanding will be lost, as the chapters are, to a certain extent, repetitions of the foregoing. LAMENTATIONS FOR THE PRINCES (Ezekiel 19:0 ) The theme of this chapter is found in the first and last verses. The “princes” are the kings of Judah Jehoahaz, Jehoiachin and Zedekiah, whose histories were made familiar in the closing chapters of 2 Kings ,... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Ezekiel 21:1-7
It should seem that this was but a continuation of the preceding chapter, where the Lord had commanded the Prophet to set his face toward the south, and prophecy. For, as the Prophet complained that the people would only deride him, and say it was but a parable, the Lord bids him to show that it would be a dreadful reality, in which the very loins of the hearer would tremble and be loosened, like a woman in travail. So awful would be the visitation, that the sword of the Lord would slay both... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Ezekiel 21:8-17
This seems to be another sermon to the same amount as the former. The Lord directs His servant to continue his alarming message, and again and again to cry concerning the sword of the Lord's slaughter. And the Prophet himself is to be a sign also to the people, and to cry and howl, and to smite upon his thigh. The ministers of the Lord are expected, in times of national calamity, to take interest in all the Lord's judgments; to weep between the porch and the altar; and to look to the Great... read more

Geneva Study Bible - Ezekiel 21:10
21:10 It is sharpened to make a grievous slaughter; it is polished that it may {f} glitter: should we then make mirth? it despiseth the {g} rod of my son, {h} [as] every tree.(f) And so cause fear.(g) Meaning, the sceptre showing that it will not spare the king, who would be as the son of God, and in his place.(h) That is, the rest of the people. read more
