Ezekiel 36:19 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 36:19

And I scattered them among the Heathen
First by the Chaldeans, in the various provinces of Babylon; and next by the Romans, in the various parts of the world; and in this condition they now are: and they were dispersed through the countries;
or blown about as chaff, stubble, or any such like thing, is by the wind: according to their way and according to their doings I judged them;
condemned and punished them as their evil ways and wicked works deserved, according to the rules of justice and equity; so that no injustice was done them, nor could any fault be justly found in the proceedings of God towards them.

Ezekiel 36:19 In-Context

17 "Son of man, when the house of Israel dwelt in their own land, they defiled it by their own way and by their doings; their way was before Me as the uncleanness of a removed woman.

18 Therefore I poured My fury upon them for the blood that they had shed upon the land and for their idols wherewith they had polluted it.

19 And I scattered them among the heathen, and they were dispersed through the countries; according to their way and according to their doings I judged them.

20 And when they entered unto the heathen whither they went, they profaned My holy name, when they said to them, `These are the people of the LORD, and are gone forth out of His land.'

21 But I had pity for Mine holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the heathen whither they went.
