Ezekiel 39:26

“After that they have borne their shame, &c.] And disgrace, among the nations where they are scattered; being captives, exiles, in distress and affliction, and under the manifest tokens of the divine wrath and vengeance: it may be rendered, “and they shall bear their shame”f680; that is, as Jarchi glosses it, “when I shall do good to them, and not render to them according to their wickedness, then they shall bear their shame, and be confounded, and not able to lift up their face;” as penitent persons, under a sense of divine wrath, blush, and are ashamed to look up to God; (see <150906>Ezra 9:6-10). Menachem interprets the word in the sense of atonement and forgiveness, as it is used in…”

“After that they have borne their shame--the punishment of their sin: after they have become sensible of their guilt, and ashamed of it (Eze 20:43; Eze 36:31).”

“The purposes of the past dispensation shall be made clear to God’s people themselves and to the pagan. His judgments were the consequence of their sins; and these sins once abandoned, the favor of their God will return in yet more abundance. Ezekiel 39:29 Compare Acts 2:17. Peter distinctly appropriates these prophecies (marginal references) to the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on the day of Pentecost, and the inauguration of the Church of Christ by that miraculous event. This was the beginning of the fulfillment. They shall find their consummation when time shall be no more. return to 'Top of Page' Footnotes: Copyright Statement These files are public domain.
