SEV Biblia, Chapter 7:11
La violencia se ha levantado en vara de impiedad; ninguno quedará de ellos, ni de sus riquezas, ni de lo de ellos; ni aun habrá luto por ellos.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 7:11
Verse 11. Violence is risen, up into a rod of wickedness] The prophet continues his metaphor: "Pride has budded."-And what has it brought forth? Violence and iniquity. To meet these, the rod of God cometh. There is such a vast rapidity of succession in the ideas of the prophet that he cannot wait to find language to clothe each. Hence we have broken sentences; and, consequently, obscurity. Something must be supplied to get the sense, and most critics alter words in the text. Houbigant, who rarely acknowledges himself to be puzzled, appears here completely nonplussed. He has given a meaning; it is this: "Violence hath burst forth from the rod; salvation shall not proceed from them, nor from their riches, nor from their turbulence: there shall be no respite for them." Calmet has given no less than five interpretations to this verse. The simple meaning seems to be, that such and so great is their wickedness that it must be punished; and from this punishment, neither their multitude nor struggles shall set them free. They may strive to evade the threatened stroke; but they shall not succeed, nor shall they have any respite. Our Version is to be understood as saying, - None of the people shall be left; all shall be slain, or carried into captivity: nor shall any of theirs, their princes, priests, wives, or children, escape. And so deserved shall their desolation appear, that none shall lament them. This may be as good a sense as any, and it is nearest to the letter.
Matthew Henry Commentary
The desolation of the land. (Ezek. 7:1-15) The distress of the few wh should escape. (Ezek. 7:16-22) The captivity. (Ezek. 7:23-27) Ezek. 7:1-15 The abruptness of this prophecy, and the many repetitions show that the prophet was deeply affected by the prospect of thes calamities. Such will the destruction of sinners be; for none can avoi it. Oh that the wickedness of the wicked might end before it bring the to an end! Trouble is to the impenitent only an evil, it hardens their hearts, and stirs up their corruptions; but there are those to whom it is sanctified by the grace of God, and made a means of much good. The day of real trouble is near, not a mere echo or rumour of troubles Whatever are the fruits of God's judgments, our sin is the root of them. These judgments shall be universal. And God will be glorified in all. Now is the day of the Lord's patience and mercy, but the time of the sinner's trouble is at hand.
Ezek. 7:16-22 Sooner or later, sin will cause sorrow; and those wh will not repent of their sin, may justly be left to pine away in it There are many whose wealth is their snare and ruin; and the gainin the world is the losing of their souls. Riches profit not in the day of wrath. The wealth of this world has not that in it which will answe the desires of the soul, or be any satisfaction to it in a day of distress. God's temple shall stand them in no stead. Those are unworth to be honoured with the form of godliness, who will not be governed by its power.
Ezek. 7:23-27 Whoever break the bands of God's law, will fin themselves bound and held by the chains of his judgments. Since the encouraged one another to sin, God would dishearten them. All mus needs be in trouble, when God comes to judge them according to their deserts. May the Lord enable us to seek that good part which shall no be taken away __________________________________________________________________
