Ezequiel 34:24 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 34:24

And I the Lord will be their God
The God of them Christ is the shepherd of, and whom he feeds; the sheep and poor of the flock: this is the great blessing of the everlasting covenant, and than which there cannot be a greater, to have the Lord, the everlasting and unchangeable Jehovah, to be a covenant God and Father: and my servant David a Prince among them;
who should reside among them, dwell with them, by granting them his spiritual presence, and so rule over them, protect and defend them; even he who is the Prince of the kings of the earth, and is exalted, a Prince and a Saviour of his people Israel; he is such a Shepherd as that he is a Prince; and such a Prince as that he is a Saviour and under whose princely government is the greatest safety: I the Lord have spoken it;
and therefore it shall assuredly be. The Targum is,

``I the Lord have decreed it in my word;''

he had determined it within himself, and promised it in covenant, and spoke of it in prophecy, and it should be fulfilled.

Ezequiel 34:24 In-Context

22 Yo salvaré a mis ovejas, y nunca más serán en rapiña; y juzgaré entre oveja y oveja.

23 Y despertaré sobre ellas un pastor, y él las apacentará; a mi siervo David: él las apacentará, y él les será por pastor.

24 Yo, el SEÑOR, les seré por Dios, y mi siervo David, príncipe en medio de ellos. Yo, el SEÑOR, he hablado.

25 Y estableceré con ellos pacto de paz, y haré cesar de la tierra las malas bestias; y habitarán en el desierto seguramente, y dormirán en los bosques.

26 Y daré a ellas, y a los alrededores de mi collado, bendición; y haré descender la lluvia en su tiempo, lluvias de bendición serán.
