Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 6:11-14

11-14 It is our duty to be affected, not only with our own sins and sufferings, but to look with compassion upon the miseries wicked people bring upon themselves. Sin is a desolating thing; therefore, stand in awe, and sin not. If we know the worth of souls, and the danger to which unbelievers are exposed, we shall deem every sinner who takes refuge in Jesus from the wrath to come, an abundant recompence for all contempt or opposition we may meet with. read more

Paul E. Kretzmann

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Ezekiel 6:8-14

The Fate of those who Remain v. 8. Yet will I leave a remnant, in the general destruction spoken of in the first part of the chapter, that ye may have some that shall escape the sword among the nations when ye shall be scattered through the countries, in the exile which had been threatened by various prophets. v. 9. And they that escape of you shall remember Me among the nations whither they shall be carried captives, realizing that He who brought this calamity upon them was Jehovah, the God... read more

Lange's Commentary on the Holy Scriptures: Critical, Doctrinal and Homiletical - Ezekiel 6:1-14

3. The Two Discourses of Rebuke (Ch. 6 and 7).Ezekiel 6:1. And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying: Son of man, set 2thy face toward the mountains of Israel, and prophesy to them. And say, 3Ye mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord Jehovah. Thus saith the Lord Jehovah to the mountains and to the hills, to the brook-channels and to the valleys: Behold, I, even I, cause a sword to come upon you, and I destroy your high places. 4And your altars are desolated, and your sun-pillars are... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Ezekiel 6:1-14

These signs were followed by denunciations growing naturally out of what they had taught. In general terms, the prophet first foretold the coming judgment of the sword against the whole land, and the consequent scattering of the people. It was distinctly declared that in this process of judgment Jehovah would preserve a remnant of those who would escape from the destruction of Jerusalem, and in whose mind the judgment would remain, producing repentance, and the conviction that the word of God... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 6:13-14

“And you will know that I am Yahweh when their slain men shall be among their idols round about their altars, on every high hill, in all the tops of the mountains, and under every green tree, and under every thick oak, the place where they offered sweet savour to all their idols. And I will stretch out my hand on them, and make the land desolate and waste, from the wilderness toward Diblah throughout all their habitations. And they shall know that I am Yahweh.” Had Yahweh protected the city and... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 6:11-14

Ezekiel 6:11-2 Chronicles : . The prospect of the awful destruction of the idolaters by sword, famine, and pestilence, moves Ezekiel to give vent to his feelings in gestures of triumphant scorn; far from pitying his sinful fellow-countrymen in the hour of their sore distress, rather does he rejoice in Yahweh’ s victory over them. (For alas, Ezekiel 6:11, read ha!) And again comes the scornful reference to the impotent idols who could save neither the worshippers nor the sanctuaries nor the... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Ezekiel 6:13

Then shall ye know: see Ezekiel 6:3-7,Ezekiel 6:10. Upon every high hill, & c.; each of which was accounted a fit place for such superstitions rites, and in all which some or other of you did commit idolatry, and, shame to speak it, burnt sweets, rich spices, which God had given them, to dunghill gods, stinking idols, which the devil had commended to them, Deuteronomy 32:17. read more

Matthew Poole

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Ezekiel 6:14

Stretch out my hand: this noteth the greatness of the blow, God striketh hard when he stretcheth out his hand, and therefore you find a mighty hand joined with outstretched arm. Desolate; a desolation, (a Hebraism,) for most desolate. Yea, more desolate; and a desolation greater or above the desolation of that most horrid wilderness of Moab, which is here called Diblah, mentioned in a dual form, Numbers 33:46; Jeremiah 48:22, as some think; and described by Moses, Deuteronomy 8:15. It was that... read more

Joseph Exell

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Ezekiel 6:1-14

4. FURTHER INSTRUCTIONS AS TO THE CONSEQUENCES OF ISRAEL’S CONDUCT (Chap. 6)EXEGETICAL NOTES.—The judgment on places of idolatry and the worshippers (Ezekiel 6:1-7). After asserting, in Ezekiel 6:1, his renewed consciousness that he was to speak from the inworking power of the Lord, Ezekiel unfolds the procedure which will be taken. Here he has special reference to the whole country, as in chaps. 4 and 5 the city Jerusalem was chiefly in view.Ezekiel 6:2. “Son of man, set thy face,” a frequent... read more
