Ezekiel 36:1 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

EZEKIEL CHAPTER 36 The land of Israel is comforted with a prospect of the ruin of its spiteful neighbours, and of its own blessings promised by God, Ezekiel 36:1-15. Israel was rejected for their sin, and shall be restored with blessings for the sake of God's name only, Ezekiel 36:16-38. Also, Heb. And. Prophesy, declare from me, and in my word, unto the mountains of Israel; the inhabitants wasted or in captivity, speak concerning the mountains, that is, the land of Judah and Israel, which was a country full of mountains, which were now horrid, unplanted. Hear what further revenge I will take on Edom, and on other nations that wasted you: this continued to the end of the 6th verse. And hear what good I will do to you: this from the 7th to the end of the chapter. The word of the Lord; the severe judgments against your enemies, his gracious promises to you.
