Ezekiel 5:12 - Coke's Commentary on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

And I will draw out a sword after them— That is, "Mine anger shall still pursue thee even into countries whither thou art banished and carried captive." This was particularly fulfilled in those who retired into Egypt, and has been remarkably verified in the many persecutions and miseries which the Jews have undergone at different times in most parts of Europe since their general dispersion.

Ezekiel 5:12

12 A third part of thee shall die with the pestilence, and with famine shall they be consumed in the midst of thee: and a third part shall fall by the sword round about thee; and I will scatter a third part into all the winds, and I will draw out a sword after them.
