Ezekiel 37:22 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

And I will make them one nation in the land upon the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all:

And I will make them one nation - (Isaiah 11:13, "The envy also of Ephraim shall depart, and the adversaries of Judah shall be cut off: Ephraim shall not, envy Judah, and Judah shall not vex Ephraim;" Jeremiah 3:18; Hosea 1:11, "Then shall the children of Judah and the children of Israel be gathered together, and appoint themselves one head").

And one king shall be king to them all - not Zerubbabel, who was not a king either in fact or name, and who ruled over but a few Jews, and that only for a few years; whereas the King here reigns forever. MESSIAH is meant (Ezekiel 34:23-24.) The union of Judah and Israel under King Messiah symbolizes the union of Jews and Gentiles under Him, partly now, perfectly hereafter (Ezekiel 37:24; John 10:16).
