Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Ezekiel 7:1-27

5. LAMENTATION OVER THE DESOLATED LAND (Chap. 7)EXEGETICAL NOTES.—In this chapter we have not so much an additional prophecy as a re-statement of principles and denunciations which had been already formulated. It affords abundant illustration of the tendency of Ezekiel to repeat his messages, and to use even the same forms of expression. But some of the repetition here must be, moreover, accounted for by the highly excited emotions under whose influence he wrote. That these emotions should take... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Ezekiel 7:1-27

Ezekiel 7:2 . An end, the end is come upon the four corners of the land. The end is come at once on the whole land of Judea and of Israel. The crown is fallen from the heads of David’s house: they shall no more be regal shepherds of my people, till he come whose right it is to wear the crown. Ezekiel 7:5 . An evil, an only evil, behold is come. The Hebrew reads, an evil, one evil; and a repetition in Hebrew generally denotes the superlative degree, or the consummation of evil. Ezekiel... read more

Daniel Whedon

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 7:7

7. The morning is come The R.V. and most modern exegetes translate “The doom is come.” This expression, however, may only mean that, notwithstanding the declarations of false prophets that things will continue just as they are or will grow better presently, a new beginning is at hand and the day of trouble has already dawned. This interpretation seems to agree best with Ezekiel 7:10. The day of trouble, etc. Literally, the day is near, a tumult, and not a shouting on the mountains. The... read more
