Ezekiel 47:14 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

One as well as another; by equal right, each tribe and each family shall inherit their assigned portion, by right of children descended from a father whose it was by letters patent from heaven. Concerning the which I lifted up mine hand; which by oath I bound myself, saith God, to give to you. See this form of oath Ezekiel 20:5, Ezekiel 36:7. Unto your fathers; first to Abraham, Genesis 13:15, Genesis 15:18; next to Isaac, Genesis 26:3; next to Jacob, Genesis 28:13; and all three are frequently mentioned, as those to whom the Lord sware in this thing, Exodus 33:1 Deuteronomy 1:8, Deuteronomy 6:10, &c. Shall fall; so we speak of the inheritance which is sure and firm by indefeasible right, and comes into actual possession; it may also refer to the dividing by lot, which God will guide, that each may have their own. Unto you, returned captives, who were carried away and used as if nothing were your own, and as if you never should have any thing; but in their sight you shall inherit.
