以西结书 6:8-9 CUVS

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Ezekiel 6:8-10

Judgment had hitherto triumphed, but in these verses mercy rejoices against judgment. A sad end is made of this provoking people, but not a full end. The ruin seems to be universal, and yet will I leave a remnant, a little remnant, distinguished from the body of the people, a few of many, such as are left when the rest perish; and it is God that leaves them. This intimates that they deserved to be cut off with the rest, and would have been cut off if God had not left them. See Isa. 1:9. And it... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 6:8

Yet will I leave a remnant ,.... Not in Judea, but in Babylon, and in the countries where they should be dispersed, as follows: that ye may have some that shall escape the sword among the nations ; which was threatened to be drawn, and sent after them, Ezekiel 5:2 ; but all should not perish by if; some should escape; for this was not the time to make a full end of them: when ye shall be scattered through the countries ; that is, of Egypt, Ammon, Moab, and Assyria; for this... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 6:9

And they that escape of you shall remember me ,.... Either my grace and mercy to them, as Jarchi; or the fear of me, as the Targum; and so return by repentance, and worship the Lord their God, being influenced by his kindness and goodness to them: even when among the nations, whither they shall be carried captive ; so that their afflictions should be sanctified and made useful to them: in prosperity men are apt to forget God; in adversity they are brought to a sense of themselves and... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 6:9

They that escape of you shall remember me - Those that escape the sword, the pestilence, and the famine, and shall be led into captivity, shall plainly see that it is God who has done this, and shall humble themselves on account of their abominations, leave their idolatry, and worship me alone. And this they have done from the Babylonish captivity to the present day. read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 6:8

Verse 8 Yet here another promise is added, which may temper the bitterness of so sorrowful a prophecy. For hitherto God shows that he burns with indignation against the land of Israel, so that he determined to destroy it, since it was polluted everywhere, and at all corners. Nothing could therefore be hoped for, if Ezekiel had spoken precisely; therefore a promise is added in mitigation — I will leave a remnant, says he, that you may have some who escape the sword; that is, that some of you may... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 6:8

Yet will I leave a remnant, ere. The thought, though not the word, is that of Isaiah 1:9 ; Isaiah 10:20 ; Zephaniah 2:7 ; Zephaniah 3:13 ; Jeremiah 43:5 . For these, at least, the punishment would, in greater or less measure, do its work; and, in remembering Jehovah, they would find the beginning of conversion. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 6:8

The remnant. The remnant that is to escape in the greatest destruction appears repeatedly in Hebrew prophecy. Its existence is evidently regarded as of deep significance, over and above the value of the individual lives spared, as a ray of light in the otherwise universal gloom, a glimmer of hope amidst the deepening despair. I. THE REMNANT IS A SIGN OF GOD 'S MERCY . He did not utterly destroy his guilty people. Not loving the work of judgment, he spared all whom it was... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 6:8

A remnant. When the corn is threshed by the flail, or by the teeth of the threshing-implement, as in the literal "tribulation," its bulk is reduced; for the grain is separated from the straw and the husk. It is so with a nation visited by the calamities which came upon the Hebrew people. Pestilence, famine, and sword are the means by which multitudes may perish; yet some may be left, and these are "a remnant." I. THE CALAMITIES AND JUDGMENTS WHICH LEFT THE FEW AS A ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 6:8-10

Many lost; few saved. The prospects of God's kingdom on the earth have never been wholly dark. A glint of light has always pierced the heavy clouds of gloom. Among the diseased grapes of the cluster, a solitary sound one is found. A thousand acorns are on the oak in autumn time; three or four only take root and flourish. The elect are still the few. But it shall not always be so. The turning point in their fortune is repentance. The internal change must always precede the external. I. ... read more
