Ezekiel 22:29 - Forerunner Commentary

Ezekiel 22:29

27 Her ^aprinces in her midst are like wolves tearing the prey, to shed blood, to destroy¹ people, and to get dishonest gain.

28 ^aHer prophets plastered them with untempered mortar, ^bseeing false visions, and divining ^clies for them, saying, ‘Thus says the Lord God,’ when the Lord had not spoken.

29 The people of the land have used oppressions, committed robbery, and mistreated the poor and needy; and they wrongfully ^aoppress the stranger.

30 ^aSo I sought for a man among them who would ^bmake a wall, and ^cstand in the gap before Me on behalf of the land, that I should not destroy it; but I found no one.

31 Therefore I have ^apoured out My indignation on them; I have consumed them with the fire of My wrath; and I have recompensed ^btheir deeds on their own heads,” says the Lord God.
