Ezekiel 19
Concise Complete
A parable lamenting the ruin of Jehoahaz and Jehoiakim.
(1-9) Another describing the desolation of the people. (10-14)
Verses 1-9
Ezekiel is to compare the kingdom of Judah to a lioness. He must compare the
kings of Judah to a lion's whelps; they were cruel and oppressive to their own
subjects. The righteousness of God is to be acknowledged, when those who have
terrified and enslaved others, are themselves terrified and enslaved. When
professors of religion form connexions with ungodly persons, their children
usually grow up following after the maxims and fashions of a wicked world.
Advancement to authority discovers the ambition and selfishness of men's hearts;
and those who spend their lives in mischief, generally end them by violence.
Verses 10-14
Jerusalem was a vine, flourishing and fruitful. This vine is now destroyed,
though not plucked up by the roots. She has by wickedness made herself like
tinder to the sparks of God's wrath, so that her own branches serve as fuel to
burn her. Blessed be God, one Branch of the vine here alluded to, is not only
become a strong rod for the sceptre of those that rule, but is Himself the true
and living Vine. This shall be for a rejoicing to all the chosen people of God
throughout all generations.
