Ezekiel prophesies against Jerusalem with a sign of sighing8. The sharp and bright sword 18. against Jerusalem 25. against the kingdom 28. and against the Ammonites A ruin, a ruin, I will make it a ruin! The repetition of the word "ruin" in this verse emphasizes the certainty and severity of the judgment that God is pronouncing. In Hebrew, the word used here is "עָוֶה" (avah), which conveys a sense of overturning or destruction. This triple repetition is a literary device used in Hebrew to express completeness or intensity. Historically, this prophecy is directed towards the kingdom of Judah and its capital, Jerusalem, which would face destruction due to their persistent disobedience and idolatry. The phrase underscores the irreversible nature of God's judgment at that time, highlighting the seriousness of turning away from God's commandments. It will not be restored until the arrival of Him to whom it belongs to whom I have assigned judgment Until he come whose right it is.--This is generally acknowledged as a reference to Genesis 49:10, "until Shiloh come" even by those who reject the interpretation of Shiloh as meaning "he to whom it belongs." The promise here made refers plainly both to the priestly and to the royal prerogatives, and a still more distinct foretelling of the union of both in the Messiah may be found in Zechariah 6:12-13. In Him, and in Him alone, will all this confusion and uncertainty come to an end; for, as Ezekiel's contemporary declared, "His dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and His kingdom that which shall not be destroyed" (Daniel 7:14). Verse 27. - I will overthrow. The sentence of destruction is emphasized, after the Hebrew manner, by a threefold iteration (Isaiah 6:3; Jeremiah 22:29). It shall be no more. The pronoun in both clauses probably refers to the established order of the kingdom and the priesthood. "That order," Ezekiel says, "shall be no more." Keil, however, takes the second "it" - the "this" of the Revised Version - as meaning the fact of the overthrow. That also was not final; all things were as in a state of flux till the Messianic kingdom hinted at in the next clause should restore the true order. Until he come whose right it is. The words contain a singularly suggestive allusion to Genesis 49:10, where a probable interpretation of the word "Shiloh" is "he to whom it belongs;" or, as the LXX. gives it, τὰ ἀποκείμενα αὐτᾷ. The passage is noticeable as being Ezekiel's first distinct utterance of the hope of a personal Messiah. Afterwards, in Ezekiel 34:23, it is definite enough.Parallel Commentaries ...
