以西結書 6:6 CUNPTS

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Ezekiel 6:1-7

Here, I. The prophecy is directed to the mountains of Israel (Ezek. 6:1, 2); the prophet must set his face towards them. If he could see so far off as the land of Israel, the mountains of that land would be first and furthest seen; towards them therefore he must look, and look boldly and stedfastly, as the judge looks at the prisoner, and directs his speech to him, when he passes sentence upon him. Though the mountains of Israel be ever so high and ever so strong, he must set his face against... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 6:6

In all your dwelling places your cities shall be laid waste ,.... Which denotes that the desolation should be general, wherever they had cities and places to dwell in; the idolatry being universal, as is said in Jeremiah 2:28 ; and the high places shall be desolate ; meaning such as were in cities; as, before, such as were built upon mountains and hills; see 2 Kings 23:5 ; that your altars may be laid waste and desolate ; as they must be, the cities being destroyed in which they... read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 6:6

Verse 6 In other words, the Prophet signifies that God would take vengeance on the superstitions of the ten tribes in all places; whence it is clear, that no corner was free from corruption. For, while he names all habitations, he means that they had defiled every habitable place. Wheresoever they dwelt they had erected their altars and strange worship, as another Prophet reproves them; according to the number of your cities were your Gods. (Jeremiah 2:28; Jeremiah 11:13.) He addresses the Jews... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 6:1-6

The idolatry of the land avenged. Turning from the city of Jerusalem to the land generally, the Prophet Ezekiel addresses himself to Israel, the nation whom God had chosen, and who had rejected God. By a striking figure of speech, he delivers his message to the mountains and hills, the water courses and ravines of Palestine. How dear all these features of the land of his fathers must have been to the prophet, we can easily imagine; national and religious associations must, in the course of... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 6:1-7

The land involved in man's punishment. We have here a dramatic appeal to the stony hills of Palestine. Canaan is emphatically a mountainous country; and Ezekiel, speaking as the mouthpiece of God, addresses himself to the high places of Canaan, as the scenes of flagrant idolatry. From his residence by the banks of Chebar he could not see with his bodily eye these renowned, but now desecrated, hills; yet he sees them with the clear eye of imagination. His fervid appeal to these loved hills... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 6:1-7

The impotence of idols. "And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying, Son of man, set thy thee toward the mountains of Israel," etc. The former prophecies related chiefly to the city of Jerusalem and the laud of Judah. But this one relates to the whole of the land of Israel. Hence the Lord God, through his prophet, addresses "the mountains and the hills," etc. ( Ezekiel 6:3 ). The burden of this chapter is a proclamation of Divine judgment because of the idolatry of the people. This,... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 6:6

A ruined civilization. Palestine is now a land of ruins, and the prophecy before us predicted that condition. But there is more behind. Houses broken down, altars overthrown, streets grass grown, inhabited places made desolate,—these are the outward and visible signs of a decayed and broken civilization. The destruction of the civilization is the real disaster. This happened in Israel when wild beasts came out from the forests and prowled over the once safe and populous country; and it... read more

Joseph Benson

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Ezekiel 6:2-7

Ezekiel 6:2-7. Set thy face toward the mountains of Israel Turn thy face to that part where Judea is situated. Judea was a hilly country; therefore that whole land is expressed here and elsewhere by the mountains of Israel, Judah being called Israel, because the ten tribes, generally distinguished by that name, had been long since carried captive into Assyria, and Judah possessed a great part of their country. And prophesy against them Direct thy discourse to them. The prophets... read more

Donald C. Fleming

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 6:1-14

The idolatry of Israel (6:1-14)From the time of the judges (the period that followed Israel’s settlement of Canaan) the people of Israel had copied Canaanite religious practices. Canaanite gods, collectively known as Baalim (plural of Baal) were gods of nature, and Israelites used the Canaanite shrines throughout the countryside as places to offer worship to Yahweh. These shrines were called ‘high places’ because they were usually built on the tops of hills and mountains. Israel’s false worship... read more
