Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 33:21-33

News from Jerusalem (33:21-33)As soon as news reached the exiles that Jerusalem had fallen as Ezekiel had foretold, Ezekiel knew that the new phase of his work was to begin. The former restrictions on his speech and movements were lifted (21-22; cf. 24:25-27).Ezekiel received news also of certain selfish and dishonest practices among the Jews who were left in the country areas of Judah. Some of these people had seized the land of those taken into exile. They argued that if Abraham (only one... read more

Ezekiel 33:33. And when this cometh to pass, &c.— Therefore when these things come to pass, (they shall come to pass immediately,) then, &c. "When you see my prophesies concerning the destruction of Jerusalem actually come to pass, as will immediately be the case; then you will be convinced of the truth of my mission, and of your own inexcusable fault in despising my predictions." See Eze 33:21-22 and Calmet. REFLECTIONS.—1st, Once more the prophet is sent to the rebellious house of... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Ezekiel 33:23-33

The first message of hope 33:23-33This first message dealt with a serious defect in the Israelites. The Jews still in Judea were not listening to the whole counsel of God but were picking and choosing what they would obey (Ezekiel 33:23-29). The Jews in exile were listening to Ezekiel, but they were not responding (Ezekiel 33:30-33). If they were to profit from the messages of hope that Ezekiel proceeded to give them, all the Jews needed to respond to those he had already delivered by... read more

They listened to Ezekiel as they listened to entertainers, singers or instrumentalists. Entertainers expect no response to their performances beyond applause, but preachers expect people to change. The exiles admired Ezekiel for his content and delivery, but they did not put into practice what he told them to do (cf. James 1:22-25). They did not apply it to their own lives and change. Consequently, when what Ezekiel promised came, namely, judgment for personal responsibility (Ezekiel 33:12-20),... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 33:1-33

§ 1. The Restoration (Ezekiel 33-39)After an introductory passage (Eze 33:1-20), and two short prophecies against the wicked survivors of Jerusalem and the careless exiles (Eze 33:21-33), this section describes the restoration in connexion with the Ruler, the Land and the People successively. As to the Ruler, God is pictured as the Shepherd of Israel (Ezekiel 34:0). As to the Land, a prophecy against Edom (Ezekiel 35:0) introduces a new address to the mountain land of Israel (Ezekiel 36:0). As... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 33:1-35

The New Israel (Ezekiel 33-48)So long as the Jewish kingdom remained in existence Ezekiel’s prophecies (those in Ezekiel 1-24) dealt almost exclusively with the nation’s sin, and with the certainty of its overthrow. But when these prophecies were fulfilled by the fall of Jerusalem his message assumed a new and hopeful character. God’s punishment of Israel’s sin was not the end of His dealings with His people. The destruction of the old sinful Israel would be followed by the establishment of a... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 33:21-33

The Prophet, the Survivors, and the ExilesIn Ezekiel 24:27 it was announced to Ezekiel that the silence which began with his wife’s death and the siege of Jerusalem would be ended when fugitives from the captured cities should arrive in Babylonia. This took place a year and five months (but see on Ezekiel 33:21) after Jerusalem fell, and Ezekiel began once more to receive and proclaim messages from God. This passage contains two of these. The first was directed against the wicked survivors who... read more
