Yǐsījiēshū 22:16 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 22:16

And thou shalt take thine inheritance in thyself in the sight
of the Heathen
No longer be the inheritance of God, but their own; and not have God to be their portion and inheritance, but themselves; and a poor portion and inheritance that must be, being in captivity, poverty, and distress; enjoying neither their civil nor religious liberties, as heretofore; it would be now manifest to the Heathens that they were forsaken of God, and left to themselves. Some render it, "and thou shalt be profaned, or polluted in thyself" ^F5; shalt be known to be so to thyself, as well as appear so to others. The Targum is,

``I will be sanctified in thee before the people:''

and thou shalt know that I am the Lord;
able to do what I say; faithful to my word; omniscient, omnipresent, and omnipotent; and this thou shalt not only know, but own and acknowledge, when these calamities take place, and have their effect.
