以西结书 22:20-22 CUVS

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 22:1-31

National decay (22:1-31)With Jerusalem’s end approaching, God again told Ezekiel to show the city its sins and the humiliating judgment that these sins would bring upon it (22:1-5). Powerful people exploited others, without any respect for the laws of God or the dignity of their fellow human beings (6-8). The corrupt city was characterized by lies, violence, idolatry, bribery, oppression and sexual sins of the worse kind (9-12). God warned that in punishment for its wickedness, he would destroy... read more

E.W. Bullinger's Companion Bible Notes - Ezekiel 22:20

I will leave you there. The letter? (Pe-P) in ve hippihti, in being transferred from the ancient Hebrew into the modern square character, was probably mistaken for the? (Nun = N), being much alike. If so, "I will blow" became "I will leave"; and the words "you there" had to be necessarily supplied. By this change the correspondence of the two verses (20, 21) is restored: - Ezekiel 22:20 . Gather . . . blow . . . melt: Ezekiel 22:21 . Gather . ., blow . . . melt. read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Ezekiel 22:18-21

Ezekiel 22:18-21. The house of Israel, &c.— The house of Israel is to me become all of them alloy; brass, and tin, and iron, and lead in the midst of the furnace: alloy of silver are they. Ezekiel 22:19. Because ye are all run into alloy, therefore, behold, I will amass you together in the midst of Jerusalem. Ezekiel 22:20. As they amass, &c. so will I amass you in mine anger and in my fury, and will put you in, and melt you. Ezekiel 22:21. Yea, I will amass you together, &c. God's... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Ezekiel 22:17-20

The Lord also compared the present Judahites to the base metals (lead, sulfur, and other minerals) that separate from silver in the refining process. He planned to gather them in Jerusalem, His crucible, and subject them to a trial by fire, as refiners do to extract any remaining silver from the dross (cf. Isaiah 1:22-25; Isaiah 48:10; Jeremiah 6:27-30; Jeremiah 9:7; Zechariah 13:9; Malachi 3:2-4). [Note: See Allen, Ezekiel 20-48, p. 38, for a description of the smelting process.] Punishment... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Ezekiel 22:21-22

God’s wrath would be the fire that He would blow on them, and they would melt, as when a silversmith refines silver (cf. 2 Peter 3:9-14; Revelation 20:15). They would then know that Yahweh had judged them.The Babylonians really did burn the city, so this turned out to be a literal fire as well as a metaphorical one. read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 22:1-31

Another Indictment of JerusalemThe various religious and social evils that prevail in the city are recited (Ezekiel 22:1-11). Their coming punishment is then predicted, first in direct terms (Ezekiel 22:13-16), and next under the figure of a smelting furnace (Ezekiel 22:17-22). Lastly, all classes in Jerusalem, prophets, priests, princes, and people, are included in the general condemnation (Ezekiel 22:23-31).2. The bloody city] referring to those unjustly put to death by the wicked rulers of... read more

Ezekiel 22:14 What wisdom and philosophy, and perpetual experience, and revelation, and promises, and blessings cannot do, a mighty fear can; it can allay the confidences of bold lust and imperious sin, and soften our spirit into the lowness of a child, our revenge into charity of prayers, our impudence into the blushings of a chidden girl; and therefore God hath taken a cause proportionable. Jeremy Taylor. Bunyan twice uses this verse; once in The Pilgrim's Progress, opposite the following... read more

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 22:1-31

FINAL ORACLES AGAINST JERUSALEMEzekiel 22:1-31; Ezekiel 24:1-27THE close of the first period of Ezekiel’s work was marked by two dramatic incidents, which made the day memorable both in the private life of the prophet and in the history of the nation. In the first place it coincided exactly with the commencement of the siege of Jerusalem. The prophet’s mysterious knowledge of what was happening at a distance was duly recorded, in order that its subsequent confirmation through the ordinary... read more
