What does Ezekiel 45:8 mean?
In the land shall be his possession in Israel
Or, "as for the land, it shall be his for a possession in Israel"
F1; the people of the land shall be a
people for possession, as in ( 1 Peter 2:9 ) or a
peculiar people of his throughout all Israel; all the spiritual
Israel, whether Jew or Gentile, shall be Christ's possession and
inheritance: and my princes shall no more oppress my
people;
neither ecclesiastical princes, as the Scribes and Pharisees
formerly, nor civil magistrates; not the one with false
doctrines, carnal rites and ceremonies; nor the other with heavy
taxes, and rigorous exactions: and the rest of the land
shall they give to the house of Israel
according to their tribes;
the spiritual and mystical Israel, Jews and Gentiles, who shall
now inherit the earth, and possess all temporal good things, as
well as spiritual ones.
F1 (hzxal lw hyhy Ural) "de terra vel quod attinet ad terram, sive terrae (illud), erit in possessionem in Israel", Starckius.
