Ezekiel 35:10 - Forerunner Commentary

Ezekiel 35:10

8 And I will fill its mountains with the slain; on your hills and in your valleys and in all your ravines those who are slain by the sword shall fall.

9 ^aI will make you perpetually desolate, and your cities shall be uninhabited; ^bthen you shall know that I am the Lord.

10 “Because you have said, ‘These two nations and these two countries shall be mine, and we will ^apossess them,’ although ^bthe Lord was there,

11 therefore, as I live,” says the Lord God, “I will do ^aaccording to your anger and according to the envy which you showed in your hatred against them; and I will make Myself known among them when I judge you.

12 ^aThen you shall know that I am the Lord. I have ^bheard all your ^cblasphemies which you have spoken against the mountains of Israel, saying, ‘They are desolate; they are given to us to consume.’

13 Thus ^awith your mouth you have boasted against Me and multiplied your ^bwords against Me; I have heard them.”
