Ezekiel 7:6 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 7:6

An end is come, the end is come
These words, so often repeated, show the eagerness and concern of the prophet's mind; the speed and haste destruction was making; and the great stupidity of the people, which required such a frequent repetition: it watcheth for thee;
that is, their damnation slumbered not, but was awake, and waited till the time was up, which was just at hand, for it to take place; see ( 2 Peter 2:3 ) ; behold, it is come;
either the end, or rather the evil before mentioned; it was just at the door; it denotes the certainty of it, and its near approach.
