에스겔 17:19-21 KRV

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 17:1-24

PARABLES AND RIDDLES THE UNFAITHFUL WIFE (Ezekiel 16:0 ) The theme of chapter 16 is Jerusalem and her abominations (Ezekiel 16:1-2 ), but it is worked out in parabolic form, Jerusalem, or the nation of Israel, being personified as a female. There are five stages in the story: (1) Jehovah adopts her as an infant (Ezekiel 16:1-7 ); (2) when attained to marriageable age she becomes his wife (Ezekiel 16:8-14 ); (3) as a wife she proves unfaithful (Ezekiel 16:15-34 ); (4) punishment follows... read more

Prophecy In Parable Eze 17:2 The word "riddle" may in this connection mean parable, picture, symbol; whatever will excite and interest the imagination. "A great eagle with great wings, longwinged, full of feathers, which had divers colours" this is a parabolical representation of Nebuchadnezzar "came unto Lebanon" came unto Jerusalem "and took the highest branch of the cedar" there was so much cedar in Jerusalem and in the holy edifice that the term "Lebanon" became not inappropriate as a... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Ezekiel 17:11-21

We have here the Lord's own explanation of the parable. Israel is called a rebellious house, for it had been so to the Lord, and also to the King of Babylon. Indeed, if a nation be unfaithful to the Lord, it could not be expected that it would he found faithful to men. But what I beg the Reader more particularly to notice in this part of the chapter is, the Lord's resentment of the King of Israel's unfaithfulness to the King of Babylon. Twice the Lord swears by His great name that he will... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 17:11-21

11-21 The parable is explained, and the particulars of the history of the Jewish nation at that time may be traced. Zedekiah had been ungrateful to his benefactor, which is a sin against God. In every solemn oath, God is appealed to as a witness of the sincerity of him that swears. Truth is a debt owing to all men. If the professors of the true religion deal treacherously with those of a false religion, their profession makes their sin the worse; and God will the more surely and severely punish... read more

The Double Application of the Parable v. 11. Moreover, the word of the Lord came unto me, saying, v. 12. Say now to the rebellious house, literally, "the house of rebelliousness," the children of Israel, to whom this parable had been told as a warning, Know ye not what these things mean? Were they intellectually as well as morally stupid? Tell them, Behold, the king of Babylon is come to Jerusalem, 2 Kings 24:11 ff. ; Jeremiah 24:1; Jeremiah 29:2, and hath taken the king thereof, namely,... read more

6. The Riddle about the Royal House of David (Ezekiel 17:0.)1And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying, 2Son of man, put forth a riddle, and speak a parable unto [for] the house of Israel. 3And say, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah, The great eagle, with great wings, with long wing-feathers, full of feathers, which had divers colours, came unto Lebanon, and 4took the topmost branch [leafy crown] of the cedar. The topmost of its shoots he cropt off, and brought it to the land of Canaan; in a city... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Ezekiel 17:1-24

Commanded by Jehovah, the prophet then put forth a riddle. A great eagle came on Lebanon, and took off the top of the cedar, planting the young twigs in a land of traffic, a city of merchants. Moreover, he carried away the seed of the land, and planted it in a fruitful soil, where it became a spreading vine. There was also another great eagle toward which the vine bent its roots, that he might water it. For this act of treachery the vine was denounced by command of Jehovah. Its judgment was... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 17:19

‘Therefore thus says the Lord Yahweh, “As I live, surely my oath which he has despised, and my covenant which he has broken, will I even bring down on his own head.” Behind all that has been said, however, is the fact that Zedekiah and Judah had not only broken faith with Nebuchadnezzar, they had broken faith with Yahweh. What they had done to Nebuchadnezzar they had already done to Yahweh. They had constantly broken their solemn oath and covenant with Yahweh made at Sinai and regularly... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 17:20

“And I will spread my net on him, and he will be taken in my snare, and I will bring him to Babylon, and will plead with him there for his trespass that he has trespassed against me.” Zedekiah’s problem was that, because he had flagrantly disobeyed Yahweh, it was Yahweh who was against him. Thus as a hunter spreads his net and snares his prey, so will Yahweh trap Zedekiah, with the result that he will be taken captive to Babylon. Note that it is Yahweh Who snares him and Yahweh Who takes him to... read more
