Ezechiele 34:23-24

23 E susciterò sopra d’esse un solo pastore, che le pascolerà: il mio servo Davide; egli le pascolerà, egli sarà il loro pastore.

24 E io, l’Eterno, sarò il loro Dio, e il mio servo Davide sarà principe in mezzo a loro. Io, l’Eterno, son quegli che ho parlato.

Ezechiele 34:23-24 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO EZEKIEL 34

In the former chapter the prophet prophesies against the people of the Jews, both those of the captivity, and those who were not; and here against the shepherds of Israel. This he is bid to do, Eze 34:1,2, whose cruelty to the flock, negligence and unfaithfulness are exposed, Eze 34:3-6, for which reasons they are threatened to be deprived of their office, Eze 34:7-10, and the Lord promises to take the care of the flock upon himself, to seek out his sheep, and feed them, and do every kind office to them, Eze 34:11-16 and then the strong of the flock, that oppressed the weak, are threatened with punishment, Eze 34:17-22 and the promise of the Messiah, as the shepherd of the flock, is made, under whom all prosperity and happiness might be expected, Eze 34:23-31.
