Ezequiel 34:25 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 34:25

And I will make with them a covenant of peace
, Such the covenant of grace is, made with Christ from everlasting; in which Jehovah proposed terms of peace, and which Christ undertook to answer, and became the peacemaker; and from this article concerning the peace and reconciliation of men the covenant is so called; see ( Isaiah 54:10 ) , this the Lord promises to make known to his people his flock, to show them their interest in it, and to make it good unto them; for otherwise it was made with Christ, and with them in Christ from all eternity. The Septuagint and Arabic versions read,

``I will make with David a covenant of peace:''

and will cause the evil beasts to cease out of the land;
which was literally fulfilled when the Jews returned from Babylon; during their captivity, the land being uninhabited, evil beasts increased in it, and possessed it; but upon their return these ceased, being either destroyed, or driven away: but figuratively these design wicked men, who, for the malignity of their nature, manners, and conversation, are called evil beasts, as the Cretians were, ( Titus 1:12 ) , particularly false teachers may be designed; those grievous wolves that spare not, but wrong the flock; but now shall be no more, being either forced to quit their place, or truly converted; so that the wolf shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard lie down with the kid; which will be the peaceable and comfortable state of the church in the latter day; when there will be none to hurt and destroy in the Lord's holy mountain, ( Isaiah 11:6-9 ) : and they shall dwell safely in the wilderness, and sleep in the woods;
not only in their houses, but in the fields, and even in the wilderness, and in the woods, where wild beasts used to resort; but now being clear of all, and under the protection of such a Shepherd and Prince as David the servant of the Lord, they shall have no dread upon their mind, no fear of any danger; but dwell in the utmost security, lie down and sleep in peace and safety, the Lord sustaining them; and whom they shall serve without fear of any enemy all their days, in righteousness and holiness, being delivered out of the hands of them all.

Ezequiel 34:25 In-Context

23 Sobre ellos pondré un solo pastor, a mi siervo David. Él las alimentará y será su pastor.

24 Yo, el Señor
, seré su Dios y mi siervo David será un príncipe en medio de mi pueblo. ¡Yo, el Señor
, he hablado!

25 Pacto de paz del Señor
»”Haré un pacto de paz con mi pueblo y alejaré de la tierra a los animales peligrosos. Entonces los israelitas podrán acampar seguros en los lugares más silvestres y dormir sin temor en el bosque.

26 Bendeciré a mi pueblo y a sus hogares alrededor de mi colina sagrada. En la temporada oportuna les enviaré las lluvias que necesiten; habrá lluvias de bendición.

27 Los huertos y los campos de mi pueblo darán cosechas abundantes y todos vivirán seguros. Una vez que yo rompa las cadenas de su esclavitud y los rescate de quienes los esclavizaron, entonces ellos sabrán que yo soy el Señor
