Ezequiel 13:13 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 13:13

Therefore thus saith the Lord God
Confirming what he had before bid the prophet say, ( Ezekiel 13:11 ) ; I will even rend [it] with a stormy wind in my fury;
stormy winds sometimes rend rocks asunder, ( 1 Kings 19:11 ) ; and much more feeble tottering walls; what is before ascribed to the stormy wind is said to be done here by the Lord himself, making use of that as an instrument; stormy winds fulfil his word, ( Psalms 148:8 ) ; the cause of which is his wrath, which made the dispensation, or the invasion of the Chaldean army, the more terrible; and this is mentioned in all the following clauses: and there shall be an overflowing shower in mine anger, and great
hailstones in [my] fury to consume [it];
which, coming from the Lord, and attended with his wrath and fury, must needs bring on utter ruin and destruction. The whole is paraphrased by the Targum thus,

``and I will bring a mighty king with the force of tempests; and a destroying people as a prevailing rain in my fury shall come; and kings, who were powerful as hailstones, in wrath to consume.''

Ezequiel 13:13 In-Context

11 Pues diles a esos constructores que sus fachadas se vendrán abajo con una lluvia torrencial, abundante granizo y viento huracanado.
12 Y cuando la pared se haya caído, les preguntarán: ‘¿Qué pasó con la hermosa fachada?’
13 »”Por tanto, así dice el SEÑOR omnipotente: En mi furia desataré un viento huracanado; en mi ira, una lluvia torrencial; en mi furia, granizo destructor.
14 Echaré por los suelos la pared con su hermosa fachada; sus endebles cimientos quedarán al descubierto. Y cuando caiga, ustedes perecerán. Así sabrán que yo soy el SEÑOR.
15 Descargaré mi furia sobre esa pared y sobre los que hicieron su hermosa fachada. A ustedes les diré que ya no queda la pared ni los que hicieron su hermosa fachada:
