Ezekiel 47:11 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Miry places; unsound, rotten parts, that are neither sea nor yet sound ground, a proper emblem of hypocrites. The marishes; low land, sopped with the overflowings of unhealthful waters, neither fit to breed fish as the sea, nor bear trees as the land. Shall not be healed; these waters find them and leave them corrupt and noxious. Given to salt; left to their barrenness, or used as salt to season, by being made examples to others.

Ezekiel 47:11

11 But the miry places thereof and the marishes thereof shall not be healed; they shall be given to salt.
