F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Ezekiel 11:5-25

a New Heart Promised Ezekiel 11:5-25 The Spirit of God led the prophet to the East Gate of the Temple, where the Shekinah had settled, Ezekiel 10:19 . There He uttered the divine verdict on the priesthood. They had ridiculed Jeremiah’s letter to the captives, among whom Ezekiel lived, Jeremiah 29:5 ; and had made merry at his comparison between the city and a caldron, Jeremiah 1:13 . It was to these scornful men that Ezekiel uttered the scathing denunciations of Ezekiel 11:7-18 . The sudden... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Ezekiel 11:1-25

The prophet was now lifted by the Spirit, and brought to the east gate, that is, to the place whither the glory of God had departed. There he saw a conclave of five and twenty men presided over by princes of the people, who were devising iniquity, that is, plotting against the king of Babylon. They declared that they were safe in their city. Instructed of the Spirit, Ezekiel uttered a denunciation of them, and declared God's vengeance against them. Taking up their figure of the cauldron and... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 11:22-23

‘Then the cherubim lifted up their wings and the wheels were beside them, and the glory of the God of Israel was over them above. And the glory of Yahweh went up from the midst of the city and stood on the mountain which is on the east of the city.’ Having made His declarations the chariot of Yahweh, with the glory of Yahweh on it, left the city for the mountain to the east of the city. Later when His glory will return to the temple it will be the east from which it comes (Ezekiel 43:1-4). The... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 11:14-25

Ezekiel 11:14-Lamentations : . A Glimmer of Hope.— The people who, at the first deportation (597 B.C.), were allowed to remain in the land, clearly thought themselves superior to those who, like Ezekiel, had been taken to Babylon— far from Yahweh’ s land and therefore far from Yahweh ( Ezekiel 11:15, read they are far) . Ezekiel undeceives them: the future lies with the exiles, not with them. True, Yahweh had been (see mg.) to the exiles “ but little of a sanctuary”— i.e. their religious... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Ezekiel 11:14-25

(5.) MERCY PROMISED TO THE EXILES, AND CONCLUSION OF THE VISION (Ezekiel 11:14-25)EXEGETICAL NOTES.—Ezekiel 11:14-21. Ezekiel receives, for answer to his urgent appeal, an intimation that the doom of Jerusalem is irrevocable, but that the Lord’s people will not be forsaken. Amongst the exiles, who are contemptuously treated by dwellers in the capital, are found tokens of the broken, contrite heart which He does not despise. He will put an end to their captivity, and settle them again in the... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 11:1-25

Let's turn now in our Bibles to Ezekiel, chapter 11.Now Ezekiel is in Babylon during the time of these prophecies, but the Spirit of God transports him back to Jerusalem. And there he sees things that are transpiring in Jerusalem.Now as a background, there are some Jewish zealots who are still in Jerusalem who have rebelled against Nebuchadnezzar and they are thinking that they are going to be successful in their rebellion. There are false prophets in Jerusalem that are encouraging the people... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Ezekiel 11:1-25

Ezekiel 11:2 . These are the men that devise mischief, and give wicked counsel in this city. These twenty five men, with two princes at their head, Jaazaniah and Pelatiah, were the infidel club of the temple. They determined on having Jeremiah’s life with a storm of violence. They thwarted all his ministry, they advised the king to break the fealty he had sworn to the king of Babylon, they brought destruction upon their country, and then upon themselves. Where shall we find their fellows in... read more
