에스겔 34:16-17 KRV

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Ezekiel 34:7-16

Upon reading the foregoing articles of impeachment drawn up, in God's name, against the shepherds of Israel, we cannot but look upon the shepherds with a just indignation, and upon the flock with a tender compassion. God, by the prophet, here expresses both in a high degree; and the shepherds are called upon (Ezek. 34:7, 9) to hear the word of the Lord, to hear this word. Let them hear how little he regards them, who made much of themselves, and how much he regards the flock, which they made... read more

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Ezekiel 34:17-31

The prophet has no more to say to the shepherds, but he has now a message to deliver to the flock. God had ordered him to speak tenderly to them, and to assure them of the mercy he had in store for them. But here he is ordered to make a difference between some and others of them, to separate between the precious and the vile and then to give them a promise of the Messiah, by whom this distinction should be effectually made, partly at his first coming (for for judgment he came into this world,... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 34:16

And I will seek that which was lost ,.... As all men are in Adam, and through his fall, and by their own actual transgressions; and so the elect of God among the rest; who are lost not with respect to God's knowledge of them, love to them, and care for them; but with respect to their knowledge of him, affection for him, and regard to his will, service, and glory; they are lost to themselves, they know not where they are, what is their state and condition, and how to get out of it; they... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 34:17

And as for you, O my flock, thus saith the Lord God ,.... Having done with the shepherds, and the complaint against them, the Lord proceeds to take notice of the flock, or the people themselves, and the evils that were among them; for in the Lord's own flock, in the nation and church of Israel, as now in the visible congregated churches of Christ, there were two sorts of persons, some good, others bad; some that behaved well, and others ill; some were sheep, and others goats: behold, I... read more

I will destroy the fat and the strong - I will destroy those cruel and imperious shepherds who abuse their authority, and tyrannize over the flock. read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 34:17

And as for you, O my flock - After having spoken to the shepherds, he now addresses the flock. I judge between cattle and cattle - Between false and true professors; between them that have only the form and them that have the power of godliness; between the backslider in heart and the upright man. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 34:1-16

God's verdict upon self-serving rulers. The disasters that overtook the land and the people of Israel were largely due to the misdeeds of their rulers. The people in olden time were more easily led by their sovereign than they are now. The ability to read, combined with the free use of printed literature, has stimulated the power to think, and this has led to self-reliance, independence, and freedom. But in Ezekiel's day a dearth of literature made the people largely dependent on priests... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 34:11-16

The Divine Shepherd of the flock. What a marvelous contrast is here presented between the hireling and unfaithful shepherds who have presumptuously undertaken the care of God's people, and the Lord God, who in his condescension assumes the pastoral office, and fulfils it with Divine qualifications and completeness! According to the beautiful and touching representation of this passage— I. THE LORD SEEKS HIS SHEEP WHEN LOST . They have gone astray, through willfulness on... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 34:16

I will destroy the fat and the strong . What follows introduces another feature into the parable, and is hardly less than an anticipation of the great scene of judgment in Matthew 25:32 . The "fat and the strong," as contrasted with the "broken" and the "sick," are, when we interpret the Darable, the noble and wealthy who, under the kings of Judah, had been allowed to work their evil will upon the people. Of these he says that he will feed them with (better, in) judgment , that for... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 34:17

Behold, I judge between cattle and cattle . It may be worth while to note, as modern English usage tends to limit the range of the word, that it is commonly used in the Old Testament of sheep rather than of kine ( Genesis 30:34-42 ; Genesis 31:8-12 ). In Genesis 30:32 we have the same Hebrew word as that which Ezekiel uses. Between the rams and the he-goats . The words, at first, seem to point to a division like that of Matthew 25:32 , and may, perhaps, have suggested it. Here,... read more
