The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 39:26

After they have borne their shame (comp. Ezekiel 16:52 , Ezekiel 16:54 ; Ezekiel 32:24 , Ezekiel 32:30 ; Ezekiel 34:29 ; Ezekiel 36:6 ). The captivity of Israel would not be brought back until her people had been thoroughly chastised for their iniquities, and that chastisement had wrought in them a spirit of penitence and a disposition towards obedience. Then should Jehovah interpose for their deliverance by gathering them out of their enemies' lands and leading them back to... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Ezekiel 39:17-29

The purposes of the past dispensation shall be made clear to God’s people themselves and to the pagan. His judgments were the consequence of their sins; and these sins once abandoned, the favor of their God will return in yet more abundance.Ezekiel 39:29Compare Acts 2:17. Peter distinctly appropriates these prophecies (marginal references) to the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on the day of Pentecost, and the inauguration of the Church of Christ by that miraculous event. This was the beginning... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Ezekiel 39:25-26

Ezekiel 39:25-26. Therefore now will I bring again the captivity of Jacob See note on Ezekiel 34:13; Ezekiel 36:24. And have mercy upon the whole house of Israel On the ten tribes with the two. This bringing back the captive Jews and Israelites, and gathering them from their dispersions, will be an act of mere mercy.

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 39:1-29

Destruction of the armies of Gog (39:1-29)Ezekiel repeats that God was the one who drew out the forces of Gog, his purpose being to destroy them (39:1-3). Their dead soldiers lie unburied in the fields, and their cities are in ashes (4-6). The terrible massacre helps people to see how frightening is the power of God when he acts in holy anger against evil (7-8).So great were the armies of Gog in size, that their weapons provide firewood for the people of Israel for the next seven years (9-10).... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Ezekiel 39:21-29

B. Restoration to the Promised Land 33:21-39:29"The concept of the land is particularly significant to the six messages [Ezekiel 33:21 to Ezekiel 39:29] delivered in that one night before the news of Jerusalem’s fall reached the exiles in Babylonia [cf. Ezekiel 33:21-22]. Since Jerusalem had fallen, would the land be lost to Israel (Ezekiel 33:21-33)? It was the false ’shepherds’ of Israel who had lost the land for Israel by leading the people astray from the truth. But the true ’shepherd,’ the... read more

Thomas Constable

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Ezekiel 39:25-26

The Lord promised to restore the fortunes of Jacob, namely, the descendants of the devious patriarch who anticipated the corporate character of the Israelites. Obviously not all Jewish people are devious, but Scripture indicates that many of Jacob’s descendants behaved as he did. The Lord promised to have mercy on all of them. He would do this because He wanted to maintain His reputation for holiness (uniqueness as the only true God). When He restored them to security in the land following this... read more
