Ezekiel 22:31 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 22:31

Therefore have I poured out mine indignation upon them
Like a mighty torrent, carrying all before it: I have consumed them with the fire of my wrath;
by the sword, famine, pestilence, and captivity: their own way have I recompensed on their heads, saith the Lord;
brought just punishment upon them, such as their ways and works deserved;

``the vengeance of their way,''

as the Targum.

Ezekiel 22:31 In-Context

29 The people of the land have used oppression, and exercised robbery, and have oppressed the poor and needy: yes, they have oppressed the stranger wrongfully.

30 And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it: but I found none.

31 Therefore have I poured out my indignation upon them; I have consumed them with the fire of my wrath: their own way have I recompensed upon their heads, saith the Lord GOD.
