Verses 28-30
As for Ammon, the Lord said, it too would fall under His judgment (cf. Ezekiel 25:1-7). This oracle against a foreign nation is not with the others in Ezekiel (chs. 25-32) evidently because of the catchword "sword" that also marks the preceding prophecies in this chapter and because the previous message raised the question of Ammon’s fate. The Ammonites were saying that the Judahites deserved destruction because of their wickedness. They attacked and plundered the land of Judah after the siege of Jerusalem. However, Yahweh would put His sword of judgment on Judah away to rest; Israel’s enemies would attack her no more. Then He would judge the Ammonites in their ancient homeland.
