Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Ezekiel 33:10-20

These verses are the substance of what we had before (Ezek. 18:20) and they are so full and express a declaration of the terms on which people stand with God (as the former were of the terms on which ministers stand) that it is no wonder that they are here repeated, as those were, though we had the substance of them before. Observe here, I. The cavils of the people against God's proceedings with them. God was now in his providence contending with them, but their uncircumcised hearts were not... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 33:10

Therefore, O thou son of man, speak unto the house of Israel ,.... Such of them as were with him in the captivity: thus ye speak, saying; reasoning and arguing within and among themselves; which the Lord heard, and made known to the prophet, who is bid to repeat it to them in order to give an answer: if our transgressions and our sins be upon us, and we pine away in them ; as the prophet said they should, Ezekiel 24:23 , with which he had concluded his prophecies to them; and now they... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 33:11

Say unto them, as I live, saith the Lord ,.... The following is the answer returned from the Lord by the prophet to their above complaint and reasoning; to which is premised the oath of God, showing the certainty, reality, and sincerity of what is said, which might be depended on as true: I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked , &c.; See Gill on Ezekiel 18:23 , Ezekiel 18:31 , Ezekiel 18:32 , read more

John Gill

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 33:12

Therefore, thou son of man, say unto the children of thy people ,.... See Gill on Ezekiel 33:2 . The purport of what the prophet is bid to say in this and some following verses is, that the righteousness of a man that trusts in it, he sinning and not repenting, shall not save him; and that the wickedness of a repenting sinner shall not damn him: the righteousness of the righteous shall not deliver him in the day of his transgression ; this must be understood, not of a truly righteous... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 33:10

If our transgressions and our sins be upon us - They are upon us, as a grievous burden, too weighty for us to bear: how then can we live under such a load? We pine away in them - In such circumstances how consoling is that word: "Come unto me, all ye who are heavy laden, and I will give you rest!" read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 33:11

As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked - From this to the twentieth verse inclusive is nearly the same with Ezekiel 18, on which I wish the reader to consult the notes. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 33:10

Thus ye speak, saying , etc. At the earlier stage the prophet had to contend with scorn, incredulity, derision ( Ezekiel 12:22 ). They trusted in the promises of the false prophets ( Ezekiel 13:6 ). They laid to their soul the flattering unction that they were suffering, not for their own sins, but for the sins of their fathers ( Ezekiel 18:2 ). Now they stand face to face with the fulfillment of the prophet's words. They cherish no hopes, and they make no excuses. They have fallen... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 33:10

A question of despair. I. THE CAUSE OF THE DESPAIR . The prophet has just been told that his responsibility is limited to his warning the people faithfully. If the watchman blows the trumpet lustily he can do no more. The blood of the careless people will then be on their own heads. But this truth, which gives consolation to the prophet, is alarming to the people. It is meant to be so. Yet the alarm may be taken in a wrong way. Instead of rousing themselves to meet and overcome... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 33:10-11

The hope and the way of life. Taking these words apart from their immediate application, as we may do without departing from their spirit and inner meaning, we are invited to think of— I. HUMAN HOPELESSNESS . "Our transgressions and our sins are upon us, and we pine away in them." The men into whose lips these words are put are very far from being the only ones to whom they apply. All men everywhere may say the same—all who live on in conscious departure from the will of God. 1.... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 33:10-20

Men's misconception of God's government. Men are naturally prone to merge themselves in the nation. This was, perhaps, a stronger habit among the Jews than among us. They could not understand how that, while God punished the nation, he could protect the individual. Israel may be depressed in fortune, while yet Daniel and his companions are elevated. Sodom may be destroyed, but Lot shall be preserved. I. SUFFERING OFTEN BLINDS MEN 'S EYES TO GOD 'S EQUITABLENESS . It is... read more
