Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 7:1-27

The end is near (7:1-27)Many Jews thought that Jerusalem would never be conquered. Ezekiel announced with certainty that the city would fall. God had been longsuffering and merciful, and had saved the city many times, but the people stubbornly refused to repent. Now the time for God’s judgment had come (7:1-4). One disaster would follow another, till the wicked city was destroyed (5-9).As a tree blossoms, so Jerusalem’s sin was full-grown. The city was about to fall; rich and poor were about to... read more

Thomas Constable

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Ezekiel 7:2-4

Yahweh announced that He was bringing an end on the whole land of Israel and that it was coming soon. This judgment would come because the Lord was angry with His people for their abominable sins. He would not restrain His punishment but would bring the consequences of their sins on them. They would go into a land where the abominations they had lusted after would make them sick. Then they would know that Yahweh was the true God (cf. Ezekiel 7:9; Ezekiel 7:27; Ezekiel 6:7; Ezekiel 6:10; Ezekiel... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 7:1-27

The Desolation of the Land of IsraelThis is a final message of doom upon the whole land (Ezekiel 7:2). God’s wrath against Israel’s sin is relentless, and the judgment is inevitable and close at hand. Social relations will be broken up (Ezekiel 7:12); preparations for defence will be unavailing (Ezekiel 7:14); wealth, which has been an occasion of sin and an instrument of idolatry, will not avert calamity, but will become the spoil of the heathen (Ezekiel 7:19-21); priests and prophets, king... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Ezekiel 7:2

(2) The four corners.—A frequent Scriptural phrase for every part. (Comp. Isaiah 11:12; Revelation 7:1.) The origin of the expression is to be sought, not in any supposed popular belief that the earth was square, but in the fact that so many common things had just four sides or four corners (see Exodus 25:12; Exodus 27:2; Job 1:19; Acts 10:11, &c), that the phrase came naturally to be a common expression of universality. “An end, the end,” is a repetition for the sake of emphasis. It occurs... read more

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 7:1-27

THE END FORETOLDEzekiel 4:1-17 - Ezekiel 7:1-27WITH the fourth chapter we enter on the exposition of the first great division of Ezekiel’s prophecies. The chaps, 4-24, cover a period of about four and a half years, extending from the time of the prophet’s call to the commencement of the siege of Jerusalem. During this time Ezekiel’s thoughts revolved round one great theme-the approaching judgment on the city and the nation. Through contemplation of this fact there was disclosed to him the... read more
