以西結書 36:20 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 36:20

And when they entered unto the Heathen, whither they went,
&c.] When the Jews went into the Heathen countries, whither they were carried captive, either by the Chaldeans, or by the Romans: they profaned my holy name;
by their irreligion and immorality; by their violation of both tables of the law; by their wicked lives and conversations, whereby they gave the enemy an occasion to reproach them, their religion, and their God, ( Romans 2:24 ) : when they said to them, these are the people of the Lord, and are gone
forth out of his land;
these are the men that boast they are the people of the Lord, whom he has chosen above all people, and see what a wicked people they are; for their sins they are driven out of the land, and become our captives: or though they were the Lord's people, as they pretend, and were under his care and protection; yet he was not able to keep them in their own land, and deliver them out of our hands, but they are carried captive by us; and thus the name of God, his being and perfections, were blasphemed, and his word, worship, and worshippers, were ridiculed by them. The Targum is,

``if these are the people of the Lord, how is it that they are gone out of the land of the house of his majesty?''

以西結書 36:20 In-Context

18 所 以 我 因 他 們 在 那 地 上 流 人 的 血 , 又 因 他 們 以 偶 像 玷 污 那 地 , 就 把 我 的 忿 怒 傾 在 他 們 身 上 。
19 我 將 他 們 分 散 在 列 國 , 四 散 在 列 邦 , 按 他 們 的 行 動 作 為 懲 罰 他 們 。
20 他 們 到 了 所 去 的 列 國 , 就 使 我 的 聖 名 被 褻 瀆 ; 因 為 人 談 論 他 們 說 , 這 是 耶 和 華 的 民 , 是 從 耶 和 華 的 地 出 來 的 。
21 我 卻 顧 惜 我 的 聖 名 , 就 是 以 色 列 家 在 所 到 的 列 國 中 所 褻 瀆 的 。
22 所 以 , 你 要 對 以 色 列 家 說 , 主 耶 和 華 如 此 說 : 以 色 列 家 啊 , 我 行 這 事 不 是 為 你 們 , 乃 是 為 我 的 聖 名 , 就 是 在 你 們 到 的 列 國 中 所 褻 瀆 的 。
