The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 5:17

Evil beasts , etc. These appear in like connection in Ezekiel's favourite textbooks (comp. Le Ezekiel 26:6 , 22; Deuteronomy 32:24 ). They reappear in Ezekiel 14:15 , Ezekiel 14:21 . Historically, we have an example of the suffering thus caused in the lions of 2 Kings 17:25 , when towns and villages were deserted, and the unburied carcases of those who had died by famine, or pestilence, or the sword, were everywhere to attract them from afar.

One part he burnt on his model city (the brick), symbolizing the death of one third of the city’s people through famine and disease. The second part he scattered around the model city, then chopped up the hair with a sword,... read more

Ezekiel 5:17. Famine and evil beasts— That is, by a figure called by the Greeks εν δια δυοιν, the hungry and the evil beast. Instead of blood, Houbigant reads death or mortality. REFLECTIONS.—1st, Jerusalem's ruin is here represented by another sign. 1.

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Ezekiel 5:16-17

The Lord would send famine-like arrows against His people to destroy them. Also wild beasts, plague, hemorrhage (associated with disease) or possibly cannibalism, [Note: Ibid., p. 215.] and war would be His instruments to judge them (cf. Leviticus 26:21-26). These are standard curses for covenant unfaithfulness referred to frequently in the Mosaic Law (e.g., Leviticus 26:22; Leviticus 26:26; Leviticus 26:29; Deuteronomy 28:21; Deuteronomy 28:53-56; Deuteronomy 32:23-25; Deuteronomy 32:42; cf.... read more
