Ezekiel 34:22 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 34:22

Therefore will I save my flock
Or redeem my people, as the Targum; that is, by his son, after described, as his shepherd and servant: and they shall no more be a prey:
to Satan the roaring lion; nor to such horned cattle, their persecutors; nor to false teachers, who lie in wait to deceive; nor shall they ever perish, being the sheep of Christ, hand, and under the care of him the shepherd, spoken of in the next verse: and I will judge between cattle and cattle;
between man and man, as the Targum; that is, between good and bad men, the persecutors and the persecuted. (See Gill on Ezekiel 34:17). (See Gill on Ezekiel 34:20).
