Ezechiele 19:6 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 19:6

And he went up and down among the lions
The kings, as the Targum; kings of neighbouring nations, as Pharaoh king of Egypt, and Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon; and sometimes he was subject to the one, and sometimes to the offer: and his going up and down among them may denote his continuance as a king; for whereas his brother reigned but three months, he reigned eleven years: he became a young lion;
an oppressive prince, a cruel and tyrannical king: and learned to catch the prey, [and] devoured men;
he was notorious for his acts of injustice and arbitrary power; for the detaining the wages of workmen, and for his oppression, violence, and rapine, and shedding of innocent blood, ( Jeremiah 22:13 Jeremiah 22:17 ) .

Ezechiele 19:6 In-Context

4 E le nazioni, uditone il grido, vennero contro a lui; ed egli fu preso nella lor fossa; e lo menarono incatenato nel paese di Egitto.
5 Ed ella, quando vide che si era assai trattenuta aspettando, e che la sua speranza era perduta, prese un altro dei suoi leoncini, e ne fece un leoncello.
6 Ed egli, essendo divenuto leoncello, andava, e veniva fra i leoni, e imparò a rapir la preda, e divorava gli uomini.
7 Ed ebbe sol cura de’ suoi palazzi, e desertò le lor città; e il paese, e tutto ciò che è in esso fu desolato per la voce del suo ruggire.
8 E le nazioni delle provincie d’ogn’intorno gli diedero addosso, e tesero contro a lui la lor rete, ed egli fu preso nella lor fossa.
