Listen to Ezechiele 36:23
23 E santificherò il mio gran Nome, ch’è stato profanato fra le genti, il qual voi avete profanato in mezzo di esse; e le genti conosceranno che io sono il Signore, dice il Signore Iddio; quando io mi sarò santificato in voi, nel cospetto loro.

Ezechiele 36:23 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 36:23

And I will sanctify my great name
The same with his holy name; for his greatness lies in his holiness; which name he sanctifies when he clears it from all charges and imputations; when he makes it appear to be holy and himself to be glorious in holiness; when he vindicates the honour of his name, not in a way of punishment, as he justly might, but in a way of grace and mercy; he sanctifies his name when he proclaims it, a God gracious and merciful; for it was in this way and manner he determined to make himself illustrious and glorious, and do honour to his name: which was profaned among the Heathen, which ye have profaned in the
midst of them;
this is repeated again and again, to show the heinousness of this sin, how ill he took it at their hands, and what a concern it gave him: and the Heathen shall know that I am the Lord, saith the Lord God, when
I shall be sanctified in you before their eyes;
when the Lord shall fulfil his promises, and deliver his people; when he shall sanctify, justify, and save them; and he shall be sanctified, served, and worshipped by them, and among them: it will be taken notice of by infidels themselves; and they shall hereby know, and be obliged to acknowledge, that the God of Israel is the only Lord God; that he is true and faithful to his word, righteous and holy, in his ways, the Lord God omniscient and omnipotent.

Ezechiele 36:23 In-Context

21 Ed io ho avuto riguardo al mio santo Nome, il quale la casa d’Israele ha profanato fra le nazioni, dove son venuti.
22 Perciò, di’ alla casa d’Israele: Così ha detto il Signore Iddio: Io opero, non per cagion di voi, o casa d’Israele; anzi, per amor del mio santo Nome, il quale voi avete profanato fra le genti, dove siete venuti.
23 E santificherò il mio gran Nome, ch’è stato profanato fra le genti, il qual voi avete profanato in mezzo di esse; e le genti conosceranno che io sono il Signore, dice il Signore Iddio; quando io mi sarò santificato in voi, nel cospetto loro.
24 E vi ritrarrò d’infra le genti, e vi raccoglierò da tutti i paesi, e vi ricondurrò nella vostra terra.
25 E spanderò sopra voi delle acque nette, e sarete nettati; io vi netterò di tutte le vostre brutture, e di tutti i vostri idoli.
