Ezequiel 47:14 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 47:14

And ye shall inherit it, one as well as another
That is, the twelve tribes shall equally inherit it; one tribe shall not have more, and another less, but each alike: this was not the case, at the division of the land, in the times of Moses and Joshua; for to such tribes as were very numerous a greater inheritance was given; and to those that were fewer in number a lesser inheritance, ( Numbers 26:54 ) ( 33:54 ) , and upon the return from the Babylonish captivity, as the tribes of Judah and Benjamin were the largest, and indeed the only tribes that returned as such, they had the share of the land; but as this respects the dispensation, it signifies, that those who are true Israelites indeed shall share in the same Gospel church state, the privileges and immunities of it alike, with all the blessings of grace and eternal glory; they being all one in Christ Jesus, ( Galatians 3:28 ) : concerning the which I lifted up my hand to give it unto your fathers;
that is, swore that he would give unto them the land of Canaan; typical of the Gospel church state and the heavenly glory; which are as sure to all the seed, by the word and oath of God, as that was: and this land shall fall unto you for inheritance;
by lot, by the appointment of God, and a goodly one it is, ( Psalms 16:6 ) ( 47:4 ) .

Ezequiel 47:14 In-Context

12 Junto a las orillas del río crecerá toda clase de árboles frutales; sus hojas no se marchitarán, y siempre tendrán frutos. Cada mes darán frutos nuevos, porque el agua que los riega sale del templo. Sus frutos servirán de alimento y sus hojas serán medicinales.
13 »Así dice el SEÑOR omnipotente: Estos son los límites del país que se repartirá como herencia a las doce tribus de Israel, tomando en cuenta que a José le tocará una doble porción.
14 A los antepasados de ustedes les juré darles este país como herencia. Ahora cada uno de ustedes recibirá una parte igual, porque este país es su herencia.
15 »Por el lado norte, comenzando desde el mar Mediterráneo y pasando por la ciudad de Hetlón hasta la entrada de Zedad, los límites del país serán:
16 Jamat, Berotá, Sibrayin —que está entre el territorio de Damasco y el de Jamat— y Jazar Haticón, que limita con Jaurán.
