Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 21:1-3

The Riddle Explained. ‘And the word of Yahweh came to me saying, “Son of man, set your face towards Jerusalem, and drop your word towards the sanctuaries, and prophesy against the land of Israel, and say to the land of Israel, ‘Thus says Yahweh, behold I am against you and will draw out my sword from its sheath and will cut off from you the righteous and the wicked.’ ” ’ The explanation of the parable is now given. Note the connection between Jerusalem, the idolatrous sanctuaries and the land... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 21:1-32

Chapters Ezekiel 20:45 to Ezekiel 21:32 . The Certain Judgment of Yahweh. In the Hebrew Bible Ezekiel 20:45 is the commencement of chapter 21, and the passage fits better with what follows. The picture moves from the overall view of history and the future to God’s certain judgments now to come on Israel. These verses consist of a number of oracles, probably occurring over a period of time. They are connected by the theme of God’s sword of judgment. read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 21:1-32

Ezekiel 20:45 to Ezekiel 21:32 . The Terrible Sword of Nebuchadrezzar.— Here again, as shortly before (chs. 18f.), a piece of theological oratory is followed by a poem— this time a wild irregular dithyramb (esp. Ezekiel 21:8-Esther :), the text of which is, unhappily, corrupt in places to the point of desperation. But perhaps its very perplexities reflect the tumult of the prophet’ s soul. The nearer the doom approaches, the more vividly does he conceive it. Ezekiel 20:5-Ephesians : . He... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Ezekiel 21:2

Set thy face; put thyself in a posture may bespeak thy going to prophesy. Toward Jerusalem, or against Jerusalem, called, Ezekiel 20:46, forest of the south field. Drop thy word; of the phrase see Ezekiel 20:46; as rain from heaven, so distil my word. The holy places; either the temple, and all the parts of it, which were three, the porch, the holy, and holy of holies; or their synagogues, in which they met to worship and read the law, which were burnt up by this fire, Psalms 74:8. Against the... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Ezekiel 21:1-7

THE FIRE AND SWORD OF DIVINE JUSTICE GO FORTH AGAINST HEATHENISED JERUSALEM. (Chap. 21).EXEGETICAL NOTES.—The people had turned all their hopes towards the mother country,—the city and kingdom. The prophet shows this to be a delusion. The sword of the Lord will cut off Jerusalem and the land of Israel, both righteous and wicked. (Ezekiel 21:1-17). The instrument to be used is the king of Babylon, who will draw his sword against Jerusalem and the children of Ammon, first putting an end to the... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 21:1-32

Shall we turn now in our Bibles to Ezekiel 21 , the twenty-first chapter of Ezekiel.Now the prophets of God were often very colorful persons. And because people would not always listen to the Word of God, they would often do things to draw the people's attention to create a question in their mind, curiosity, "What in the world is he doing now?" And when these questions would arise or when they would draw the people's attention, then they would preach the message of God to them. And so,... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Ezekiel 21:1-32

Ezekiel 21:2 . Son of man, set thy face toward Jerusalem, and drop thy word toward the holy places. In the Latin bibles, this chapter begins at 21:45 of the preseding, which preserves unity in the subject. The prophecy is against the land of the south against Israel, which was southward of Mesopotamia, where Ezekiel then exercised his ministry. He must preach against the woods and groves, the seats of idolatry, and of utter ruin to the nation. Ezekiel 21:3 . I will cut off. Hebrews I... read more

Ezekiel 21:2-3Behold, I am against thee.A prophecy of judgmentI. The prophet’s compellation, or title--“Son of man.” There are but two persons in Scripture which have eminently this name--the one is our Saviour, the other Ezekiel. For our Saviour, it was not without very good reason--namely, as hereby to discover the truth of His humanity to us--that amongst those many miracles which were wrought by Him, from whence He did appear to be God, He might have somewhat also fastened upon Him... read more
