Ezekiel 24:14 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 24:14

I the Lord have spoken it; it shall come to pass
What God has said shall be accomplished; his word shall not return void and empty, or be without effect: and I will do it;
being God omnipotent and unchangeable: I will not go back;
from his word, or the thing threatened and denounced; nothing should prevail upon him to act such a part: neither will I spare;
show any mercy or compassion, or abate of the punishment due: neither will I repent;
or change the course and method of Providence; but abide by the decree gone forth, and the sentence pronounced, and thoroughly execute it; a heap of words ascertaining the truth of what is predicted: according to thy ways and according to thy doings shall they judge
thee, saith the Lord God;
that is, the Chaldeans shall judge and condemn thee, and execute my judgments on thee in a just and righteous manner, as thy evil ways and works deserve.

Ezekiel 24:14 In-Context

12 But the effort is in vain: its layers of scum will not leave it; so into the fire with its scum!

13 Because of your filthy lewdness, because you refused to be purified when I wanted to purify you; now you will not be purified from your filth until I have satisfied my fury on you.

14 "'I, ADONAI, have spoken it, and it will happen. I will do it, I will not turn back, I will not refrain or spare or relent. They will judge you as your ways and deeds deserve,' says Adonai ELOHIM."

15 The word of ADONAI came to me:

16 "Human being, with a single blow I am about to deprive you of the delight of your eyes. But you are not to lament, weep or let your tears run down.
