Ezequiel 47:7 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 47:7

Now when I had returned
To the brink of the river: behold, at the bank of the river were very many trees on the one side,
and on the other;
here was a new wonder observed, which had not been before; and therefore this note of admiration, "behold!" is prefixed; on a sudden sprung up trees on each side of the river, of a perfect stature, and full of fruit; which the prophet had not seen when he went along with the man on the bank of it, as he measured the waters; but now being returned, sees this wonderful sight; an emblem of true Christians, believers, and regenerate persons, who are trees of righteousness, planted by the river of divine love; watered with the grace of God, and doctrines of the Gospel; whereby they become fruitful in good works, and are to be seen wherever the Gospel comes with power and efficacy; see ( Psalms 1:3 ) ( Isaiah 61:8 ) , or, "an exceeding large tree" F5; so John saw but one tree, which was on each side of the river, which he calls the tree of life, ( Revelation 22:2 ) , but here it seems to be put for many, as appears from ( Ezekiel 47:12 ) .

Ezequiel 47:7 In-Context

5 Luego midió otros quinientos treinta metros y el río ya era demasiado profundo para cruzarlo caminando. Había buena profundidad para nadar, pero demasiada para atravesarlo a pie.
6 Me preguntó: «Hijo de hombre, ¿has estado observando?». Después me llevó de regreso por la orilla del río.
7 Al volver, me sorprendió ver muchos árboles que crecían a ambos lados del río.
8 Entonces me dijo: «Este río fluye hacia el oriente, atraviesa el desierto y desemboca en el valle del mar Muerto.
Esta corriente hará que las aguas saladas del mar Muerto se vuelvan puras y dulces.
9 Vivirán cantidad de criaturas vivientes por donde llegue el agua de este río. Abundarán los peces en el mar Muerto, pues sus aguas se volverán dulces. Florecerá la vida a donde llegue esta agua.
