Now he is commissioned to declare the meaning of that he did. Speak unto the house of Israel; to them at Babylon by word of mouth, but to them at Jerusalem by letter, or messenger. Profane my sanctuary; cast off, and put into the hands of heathens, who will regard it no more than any other common building, though it is and hath been long my sanctuary; but you, O Jews, first profaned it with your sins, and now, in my just displeasure against you, I will suffer it to be profaned by the Chaldeans.... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Ezekiel 24:15-27

(Ezekiel 24:15-27.)EXEGETICAL NOTES—“With a view to affect more deeply the minds of his fellow-captives Ezekiel had announced to him the disseverance of the tenderest of all earthly ties—the removal of her on whom he had ever been accustomed to look with affection and delight.

The Biblical Illustrator - Ezekiel 24:15-27

Ezekiel 24:15-27So I spake unto the people in the morning: and at even my wife died; and I did in the morning as I was commanded.Sin the worst sorrowI. Other sorrows may have no evil, but even good in them; this is essentially and eternally evil. In a bereavement, in a national calamity, as also in bodily sufferings and many social griefs, it is manifest there may be no moral wrong. There may, indeed, be the highest moral good.
