Ezekiel 36:15 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 36:15

Neither will I cause men to hear in thee the shame of the
Heathen any more
Their calumnies and revilings, their scoffs and jeers: neither shalt thou bear the reproach of the people any more;
or be any more a taunt and a curse, a proverb and a byword of the people; or be their laughing stock, and the object of their derision: neither shalt thou cause thy nations to fall any more, saith the Lord
God;
by famine, sword, or pestilence, or any other judgment caused by sin: or, "thou shalt not bereave" ^F12, as the marginal reading is; and which the Targum and many versions follow: now what is here promised, in this and the preceding verse, had not its full accomplishment upon the Jews' return from the Babylonish captivity; for since that time their men have been devoured, and their tribes have been bereaved of them by famine, sword, and pestilence; and they have heard and bore the shame and reproach of the nations where they have been dispersed, and do to this day; wherefore these prophecies must refer to a future restoration of that people.

Ezekiel 36:15 In-Context

13 “ ‘This is what the Sovereign LORD says: Because some say to you, “You devour people and deprive your nation of its children,”

14 therefore you will no longer devour people or make your nation childless, declares the Sovereign LORD.

15 No longer will I make you hear the taunts of the nations, and no longer will you suffer the scorn of the peoples or cause your nation to fall, declares the Sovereign LORD.’ ”

16 Again the word of the LORD came to me:

17 “Son of man, when the people of Israel were living in their own land, they defiled it by their conduct and their actions. Their conduct was like a woman’s monthly uncleanness in my sight.
