Ezekiel 21:25-27 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

Here the Lord speaks personally to the King of Israel, and a very awful address it is. But, what I beg the Reader more immediately to observe is, the promise of One coming, whose right the crown and diadem of Israel is, and of the royal dignity being lost until His coming. And who could this point to but Christ? Thrice the Lord declares the overturning of his people in this verse, as if to show what a degraded state the children of Israel should be reduced to before Christ's coming.

Ezekiel 21:25-27

25 And thou, profane wicked prince of Israel, whose day is come, when iniquity shall have an end,

26 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Remove the diadem, and take off the crown: this shall not be the same: exalt him that is low, and abase him that is high.

27 I will overturn,h overturn, overturn, it: and it shall be no more, until he come whose right it is; and I will give it him.
