에스겔 33:4 KRV

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Ezekiel 33:1-9

The prophet had been, by express order from God, taken off from prophesying to the Jews, just then when the news came that Jerusalem was invested, and close siege laid to it, Ezek. 24:27. But now that Jerusalem is taken, two years after, he is appointed again to direct his speech to them; and there his commission is renewed. If God had abandoned them quite, he would not have sent prophets to them; nor, if he had not had mercy in store for them, would he have shown them such things as these. In... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 33:4

Then whosoever heareth the sound of the trumpet, and taketh no warning ,.... Does not mind the notice given him; is incredulous of the danger he is in, or negligent of providing for his safety; fancies it is an alarm, and nothing else; and imagines there is no real danger, or what is a mere trifle; or, that the enemy is at a great distance, and it is time enough to provide for his defence: if the sword come and take him away ; those that kill with the sword, as the Targum, come suddenly... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 33:1-9

The watchman. Ezekiel here returns to an idea which he has expressed earlier ( Ezekiel 3:17 ). He stands as a watchman for his people. Every Christian preacher and teacher is in a similar position. The same may be said of every Christian man and woman who knows the peril of sin and has an opportunity of warning the ignorant and. careless. I. THE DUTIES OF THE WATCHMAN . 1. To watch . In order to serve his people he must first of all see for himself. We can only... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 33:1-9

The watchman's office. All the resources of God's ingenuity are employed to find argument and appeal for man's slumbering conscience. The incidents of ordinary life are carved into channels for the conveyance of Divine messages. No man shall say that the message was above his comprehension. For even a child can understand if it is willing. Lessons concerning the heavenly life meet the eye of the observer all the day long. As prudent men act to conserve their bodily life, so God acts in our... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 33:1-9

Ministerial and individual responsibility. The supposition in the text is that it is a time of war and consequently of danger; that therefore the people choose one that lives near the boundary of the kingdom or the province, and appoint him as a watchman, to give the signal at the first approach of the enemy. It is not pressing the figurative very far to say that all the life of man below is a time of spiritual conflict; we are all engaged in a long, a lifelong campaign. The enemy whom we... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Ezekiel 33:1-6

Ezekiel 33:1-6. Again the word of the Lord came unto me “It is plain that Ezekiel uttered what is contained in this chapter to Ezekiel 33:20, before Jerusalem was taken by the Babylonians; but how long before is uncertain.” Bishop Newcome. Son of man, speak to the children of thy people To the Jews, to whom he had not spoken since he declared what is contained in chap. 24. The reader will find in chap. 3., from Ezekiel 33:17-22, the substance of what is repeated in the first ten verses of... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 33:1-20

33:1-39:29 RETURN TO THE LANDA new phase in Ezekiel’s work (33:1-20)Up till now Ezekiel’s messages have been concerned mainly with God’s judgment - first his judgment on Jerusalem, then his judgment on other nations. Now that Jerusalem has fallen (see v. 21), the prophet concentrates more on the task of building up the exiles. He wants them to be a new people who will be ready to repossess the land when God’s time comes. This, however, is going to involve some stern warnings. Ezekiel is... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Ezekiel 33:1-4

The Lord told Ezekiel to speak to the Jewish exiles in Babylon. He had not spoken messages concerning them for about three years (588-585 B.C.), since the Lord had shut his mouth (Ezekiel 24:25-27), though he had uttered five oracles against the nations during that time (Ezekiel 29:1-16; Ezekiel 30:20 to Ezekiel 32:32). He was now to tell them that if the Lord brought war on a land and the people of that land appointed a watchman for them, they would be responsible if they did not heed his... read more
