Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Ezekiel 36:28-30

Ezekiel 36:28-30. And ye shall dwell in the land Spiritual blessings, promised in the last three verses, are now followed with temporal blessings.

Onlooking nations, however, did not see it that way. They mocked God, saying that the removal of Israel from its land showed that he was weak. He could not save his people from the superior gods of the nations (20-21).Therefore, God will correct this misunderstanding and restore his honour by bringing Israel back to its land (22-24).
