以西结书 36:5 CUVS

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Ezekiel 36:1-15

The prophet had been ordered to set his face towards the mountains of Israel and prophesy against them, Ezek. 6:2. Then God was coming forth to contend with his people; but now that God is returning in mercy to them he must speak good words and comfortable words to these mountains, Ezek. 36:1, 4. You mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord; and what he says to them he says to the hills, to the rivers, to the valleys, to the desolate wastes in the country, and to the cities that are... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 36:5

Therefore thus saith the Lord God ,.... Because these Heathens have acted such an unkind and cruel part to Israel: surely in the fire of my jealousy have I spoken ; in his fierce wrath and hot displeasure, resenting the ill usage of his people; hot with indignation against their enemies, having a fervent zeal for his own glory, and an affectionate concern for the good of his people. It is in the original text in the form of an oath, "if I have not spoken", &c.; F7 אם לא "si... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 36:1-15

The material creation sharing in the fortunes of men. Man has a many-sided nature. He is linked with the past history of angels and with the past history of the entire universe. His interests and fortunes are interwoven with the material creation and with the dynamic forces of nature. He has an interest in heaven and in hell. The intelligences of the universe are interested in him, and he is interested in them. I. THE LAND OF CANAAN IS HONORED BY A DIVINE COMMUNICATION... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 36:1-15

Encouragement in exile. Israel was in a very deplorable condition. It was away from its native land, in the power and in the service of the enemy; its own "inheritance" was peopled by a poor and weak remnant; it was the prey and the butt of the merciless mocker; its fortunes were low, its heart was sad indeed; it could not sing the Lord's song in such a strange land as that in which it was exiled. But after words of condemnation comes the language of hope. The prophet of God is... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 36:1-38

The present chapter is entirely devoted to the consolation of Israel, though its parts are derived from two separate "words" of Jehovah. Ezekiel 36:1-15 belong to the "word" which opened with the first verse of the preceding chapter; Ezekiel 36:16 begins another "word," which only closes at Ezekiel 37:14 . The subject of the first part is the comfort offered to Israel in the destruction threatened against the heathen, and in the blessings promised to her land and people. read more

Ezekiel 36:2-7. Because the enemy hath said, &c. This prophecy appears to be a continuation of the preceding. “The Idumeans have made their boasts (see Ezekiel 36:5, and Eze 35:10 ) that they should become masters of the mountainous parts of Judea, where the ancient fortresses were placed which commanded all the rest of the country.” Lowth. And ye are taken up in the lips of talkers, &c. Your calamities have made you become a proverb, a by-word, and a reproach among the heathen... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 36:1-15

Restoration assured (36:1-15)With the removal of the people of Israel from their ancient homeland (both northern and southern kingdoms) certain neighbouring nations took the opportunity to seize Israel’s former territory for themselves (36:1-2). God comforts his people with the reminder that the land rightly belongs to him, and he will not tolerate the contempt of these enemies (3-5). He will now deal justly with those who despised his people (6-7).Having dealt with his enemies, God will bring... read more
