Ezekiel 24:23 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

See Ezekiel 24:16,17. Ye shall pine away; you shall languish with grief and secret sorrow, when you shall not dare to show it openly, lest you irritate your tyrannical masters, who will expect that nothing grieve you that rejoiceth them. For your iniquities; the punishment of your iniquities, which have made your land, city, temple, and families desolate and miserable. And mourn one toward another; in secret, Jew with Jew, you shall bewail what you durst not openly.

Ezekiel 24:23

23 And your tires shall be upon your heads, and your shoes upon your feet: ye shall not mourn nor weep; but ye shall pine away for your iniquities, and mourn one toward another.
