Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 48:1-7

The Land Divided Among The ‘Northern’ Tribes (Ezekiel 48:1-7 ). The land to be divided up is the land west of Jordan so that Reuben and Gad and the half tribe of Manasseh, who previously held land east of Jordan, have to be included. The whole scheme is artificial, very different from the previous division in the time of Joshua. Indeed considering the fact that there were already people living in the land, many of them Israelites who had been there for generations, and that the tribes were... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 48:1-35

Chapter Ezekiel 47:13 to Ezekiel 48:35 The Division of the Land and the Establishment of ‘The City’. Presenting Paradise to the people of Israel at their lowest ebb could only be by giving them a picture of the sharing of the land among ‘the twelve tribes’ and the establishment of God’s City under the Davidic prince. That was the expanded Mosaic dream, with every man living under his own vine and his own fig tree (1 Kings 4:25). But it would depend on their true response and obedience, and... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 48:1-35

Ezekiel 48. The Tribal Allotments.— The holy city, Jerusalem, with its environments is significantly regarded as the true centre, geographical no less than religious, of the country; but, as in point of fact it really lay in the southern half, the prophet, in his ideal allotment of the land, makes a concession to geographical fact by putting seven tribes to the north, arranged in parallel strips, viz. Dan, Asher, Naphtali, Manasseh, Ephraim, Reuben, and Judah ( Ezekiel 48:1-Judges :), and... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Ezekiel 48:1-35

THE IDEAL ALLOTMENT OF THE HOLY LAND. (Chap. 48)EXEGETICAL NOTES.—The order of the original occupation of the Holy Land by the tribes under Joshua is partly, but only partly, followed. It is a new order of things, and its ideal character is evinced, as elsewhere, by exact and equal measurements. From north to south seven tribes succeed each other—Dan, Asher, Naphtali, Manasseh, Ephraim, Reuben, Judah, each occupying the full breadth of the land from east to west. Then comes a portion separated... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Ezekiel 48:1-35

REFLECTIONS. In the forty fifth chapter, the prophet had begun to describe the division of the land, but being attracted by the astonishing waters of the river of life, he digressed to describe their healing virtues, and the course they took towards the east. In the two verses preseding this chapter he resumes the subject. We may here remark, that the mode of dividing the country is very dissimilar from that made by Joshua, for here we find that strangers are allowed an inheritance with the... read more

The Biblical Illustrator - Ezekiel 48:1-35

Ezekiel 48:1-35The Lord is there.Ezekiel’s last visionThe following are some of the principal heads of prophetic instruction intended by the vision.1. That there was to be an entire new state of things in the Church. This is intimated by the new order in the arrangement of the tribes, which is not according to the birth of the patriarchs, nor the blessing of Jacob, nor the allotments they received in the ancient division of the land by Joshua. It is farther intimated by the grant of a distinct... read more
