에스겔 14:6-10 KRV

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Ezekiel 14:1-11

Here is, I. The address which some of the elders of Israel made to the prophet, as an oracle, to enquire of the Lord by him. They came, and sat before him, Ezek. 14:1. It is probable that they were not of those who were now his fellow-captives, and constantly attended his ministry (such as those we read of Ezek. 8:1), but some occasional hearers, some of the grandees of Jerusalem who had come upon business to Babylon, perhaps public business, on an embassy from the king, and in their way... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 14:6

Therefore say unto the house of Israel ,.... Deliver out the following exhortation to repentance unto them; for God's end, in all his threatenings and judgments, is to bring men to repentance: thus saith the Lord God, repent, and turn yourselves from your idols ; or, "turn, and cause to be turned from your idols" F23 שובו והשיבו "convertimini, et facite converti", Pagninus, Montanus, Vatablus. ; turn yourselves from the worship of idols, as the Targum, and do all that in you... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 14:7

For everyone of the house of Israel ,.... King and subjects, princes and people, high and low, rich and poor, of every rank, sex, and age: or of the stranger that sojourneth in Israel ; the proselytes; whether of righteousness, such as were circumcised, and embraced the Jewish religion; or of the gate, who were only inhabitants with them; one as another were obliged to worship the God of Israel, and abstain from idolatry; there was but one law to the Israelite and to the stranger,... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 14:8

And I will set my face against that man ,.... And look him out of countenance, notwithstanding all his daring impudence and presumption in coming to a prophet of the Lord, and inquiring of him by him, when guilty of gross idolatry; which mast needs be the case, when the face of God is set against a man. The Targum renders it, "my fury", or "wrath"; and indeed that is what is meant; when God sets his face against a man, he pours out his wrath, or inflicts punishment on him; see Psalm 34:16 ... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 14:9

And if the prophet be deceived when he hath spoken a thing ,.... That is pleasing to men, and is not true, in hope of reward and applause, but it never comes to pass, and his expectations are not answered: I the Lord have deceived that prophet ; by sending a lying spirit to him, as to Ahab's prophets, 1 Kings 22:22 ; by giving him up to strong delusions, to believe a lie, and publish it, 2 Thessalonians 2:11 ; and to his own heart's lusts; being willing, for the sake of gain, to... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 14:10

And they shall bear the punishment of their iniquity ,.... Both the false prophet, and those that sought unto him, and were deceived by him; and which being laid according to the strictness of divine justice, is intolerable: sad is the case when a man is obliged to bear his own sins, and the punishment of them, and has no surety to undertake for him, and be a mediator between God and him, and make atonement for him: the punishment of the prophet shall be even as the punishment of him that... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 14:7

And cometh to a prophet - Generally supposed to mean a false prophet. I the Lord will answer him by myself - I shall discover to him, by my own true prophet, what shall be the fruit of his ways. So, while their false prophets were assuring them of peace and prosperity, God's prophets were predicting the calamities that afterwards fell upon them. Yet they believed the false prophets in preference to the true. Ahab, about to engage with the Syrians, who had possession of Ramoth-Gilead,... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 14:9

I the Lord have deceived that prophet - That is, he ran before he was sent; he willingly became the servant of Satan's illusions; and I suffered this to take place, because he and his followers refused to consult and serve me. I have often had occasion to remark that it is common in the Hebrew language to state a thing as done by the Lord which he only suffers or permits to be done; for so absolute and universal is the government of God, that the smallest occurrence cannot take place without... read more

The punishment of the prophet - They are both equally guilty; both have left the Lord, and both shall be equally punished. read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 14:6

Verse 6 Now God shows why he had threatened the false prophets and the whole people so severely, namely, that they should repent; for the object of God’s rigor is, that, when terrified by his judgments, we should return into the way. Now, therefore, he exhorts them to repentance. Hence we gather the useful lesson, that whenever God inspires us with fear, he has no other intention than to humble us, and thus to provide for our salvation, when he reproves and threatens us so strongly by his... read more
