以西结书 25:11 RCUVSS

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Ezekiel 25:11

Yahweh would judge Moab, and the Moabites would come to realize that He is God. This nation also passed out of existence during the Exile. [Note: Wevers, p. 197.] Yet Yahweh promised to restore the fortunes of Moab in the distant future (Jeremiah 48:47; cf. Jeremiah 46:26; Jeremiah 49:6; Jeremiah 49:39). This happened in a limited way after the Exile, but it will happen in the eschaton when modern residents of Moab’s territory will stream to Jerusalem to worship Messiah in the Millennium. read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 25:1-17

§ 1. Ammon, Moab, Edom, and PhilistiaThese four nations were the neighbours of Israel on the E., SE., and SW. respectively, and are dealt with in their geographical order. Ammon and Moab are denounced for their exultation at the fall of Jerusalem, Edom and Philistia for their revengeful share in Israel’s humiliation. All of them are threatened with destruction from God. The instruments of the judgment are to be the Bedouins of the desert in the case of Ammon and Moab, and Israel in the case of... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 25:1-32

Prophecies against Foreign NationsThese chapters come between those which deal with the overthrow of the Old Israel (1-24) and those which describe the establishment of the New Israel (33-48), and they form an introduction to the latter group. Their significance is well explained in Ezekiel 28:24-26. The fall of Jerusalem seemed to be a victory of heathendom over the people of the true God, and it was needful to show that it was not so. The God of Israel who had visited His people with this... read more

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 25:1-17

AMMON, MOAB, EDOM, AND PHILISTIAEzekiel 25:1-17THE next eight chapters (25-32) form an intermezzo in the Book of Ezekiel. They are inserted in this place with the obvious intention of separating the two sharply contrasted situations in which our prophet found himself before and after the siege of Jerusalem. The subject with which they deal is indeed an essential part of the prophet’s message to his time, but it is separate from the central interest of the narrative, which lies in the conflict... read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 25:1-17

JUDGMENTS ON GENTILE NATIONS The prophet’s “dumbness” enjoined in the last chapter, was only towards his own people, and the interval was employed in messages touching the Gentiles. These nations might have many charges laid against them, but that which concerned a prophet of Israel chiefly was their treatment of that nation see this borne out by the text. Their ruin was to be utter in the end, while that of Israel was but temporary (Jeremiah 46:28 ). Seven nations are denounced, “the... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Ezekiel 25:8-11

Moab comes next to be called to account for her joy at Israel's affliction. The Reader will connect with this account the history of Moab's hatred to Israel, when Balak hired an enchanter from the East to curse the people of God. And he will not fail to recollect the end of that business. Numbers 22:0 ; Numbers 23:0 ; Numbers 24:0 . read more

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 25:8-17

8-17 Though one event seem to the righteous and wicked, it is vastly different. Those who glory in any other defence and protection than the Divine power, providence, and promise, will, sooner or later, be ashamed of their glorying. Those who will not leave it to God to take vengeance for them, may expect that he will take vengeance on them. The equity of the Lord's judgments is to be observed, when he not only avenges injuries upon those that did them, but by those against whom they were done.... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Ezekiel 25:1-11

In the eight chapters now following there are contained some of the mightiest prophecies of the Old Testament against the chief heathen nations of the time, all of whom had, at one time or another, opposed the people of God and hindered His good and gracious will concerning them. Against Ammon and Moab v. 1. The word of the Lord, now withheld from the Jews for a time, came again unto me, saying, v. 2. Son of man, set thy face against the Ammonites, the descendants of Lot's younger daughter... read more
