Como las ovejas santas, como las ovejas de Jerusalén en sus solemnidades, así las ciudades desiertas serán llenas de rebaños de hombres; y sabrán que yo soy el SEÑOR.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 36:38

Verse 38. As the holy flock] The Church of Christ, without spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing.

The flock of Jerusalem] The Jerusalem that is from above, the city of the living God, the place where his Majesty dwells. As they came in ancient times to the solemn national feasts so shall they come when they have fully returned unto the Lord, and received his salvation by Christ Jesus.

I do not ask my reader's pardon for having considered this most beautiful chapter as relating, not to the restoration from the Babylonish captivity, but to the redemption under the new covenant by Jesus Christ. There is no period of the Jewish history from that time until now, to which it can be applied. It must belong to the Ggospel dispensation, and if the Jews will still refuse, contradict, and blaspheme, let no Christian have any fellowship with them in their opposition to this Almighty saviour. Let none be indifferent to his salvatton; let all plead his promises; and let the messengers of the Churches proclaim to the Christian world a FREE, a FULL, and a PRESENT SALVATION! And may great grace rest upon themselves, and upon all their flocks!

Ezek. 36:1-15 Those who put contempt and reproach on God's people, wil have them turned on themselves. God promises favour to his Israel. We have no reason to complain, if the more unkind men are, the more kin God is. They shall come again to their own border. It was a type of the heavenly Canaan, of which all God's children are heirs, and into whic they all shall be brought together. And when God returns in mercy to people who return to him in duty, all their grievances will be se right. The full completion of this prophecy must be in some futur event.

Ezek. 36:16-24 The restoration of that people, being typical of ou redemption by Christ, shows that the end aimed at in our salvation is the glory of God. The sin of a people defiles their land; renders i abominable to God, and uncomfortable to themselves. God's holy name in his great name; his holiness is his greatness, nor does any thing els make a man truly great.

Ezek. 36:25-38 Water is an emblem of the cleansing our polluted soul from sin. But no water can do more than take away the filth of the flesh. Water seems in general the sacramental sign of the sanctifyin influences of the Holy Ghost; yet this is always connected with the atoning blood of Christ. When the latter is applied by faith to the conscience, to cleanse it from evil works, the former is always applie to the powers of the soul, to purify it from the pollution of sin. All that have an interest in the new covenant, have a new heart and a ne spirit, in order to their walking in newness of life. God would give heart of flesh, a soft and tender heart, complying with his holy will Renewing grace works as great a change in the soul, as the turning dead stone into living flesh. God will put his Spirit within, as Teacher, Guide, and Sanctifier. The promise of God's grace to fit u for our duty, should quicken our constant care and endeavour to do ou duty. These are promises to be pleaded by, and will be fulfilled to all true believers in every age __________________________________________________________________
