Ezekiel 37:22

Ezekiel 37:22

20 And the sticks on which you write will be in your hand ^abefore their eyes.

21 “Then say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “Surely ^aI will take the children of Israel from among the nations, wherever they have gone, and will gather them from every side and bring them into their own land;

22 and ^aI will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel; and ^bone king shall be king over them all; they shall no longer be two nations, nor shall they ever be divided into two kingdoms again.

23 ^aThey shall not defile themselves anymore with their idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions; but ^bI will deliver them from all their dwelling places in which they have sinned, and will cleanse them. Then they shall be My people, and I will be their God.

24 ^a“David My servant shall be king over them, and ^bthey shall all have one shepherd; ^cthey shall also walk in My judgments and observe My statutes, and do them.

25 ^aThen they shall dwell in the land that I have given to Jacob My servant, where your fathers dwelt; and they shall dwell there, they, their children, and their children’s children, ^bforever; and ^cMy servant David shall be their prince forever.

26 Moreover I will make ^aa covenant of peace with them, and it shall be an everlasting covenant with them; I will establish them and ^bmultiply them, and I will set My ^csanctuary in their midst forevermore.

27 ^aMy tabernacle also shall be with them; indeed I will be ^btheir God, and they shall be My people.

one nation— (Isaiah 11:13; Jeremiah 3:18; Hosea 1:11).

one king—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 for ever. 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).
