Ezequiel 28:17 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 28:17

Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty
Riches, wealth, power, and authority; see ( Ezekiel 28:5 ) , as the pope of Rome is, because of his dignity, the pomp and splendour of the Roman church, and the gaudy appearance it makes: thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness;
outward lustre and glory, which dazzled his eyes so that he could not see things in a true light; but neglecting the word of God, and setting up his own infallibility, corrupted his doctrine and worship, and became foolish, stupid, and sottish: I will cast thee to the ground;
from the throne and pinnacle of honour, to the lowest state and condition: and I will lay thee before kings:
prostrate at the feet of them, who heretofore has set his feet on the necks of them; or he shall fall before them, and be destroyed by them, when they shall hate the whore, and make her desolate, and burn her flesh with fire, ( Revelation 17:16 ) : that they may behold thee; with contempt and disdain, and as an instance and example of divine vengeance.

Ezequiel 28:17 In-Context

15 VocĂȘ era inculpĂĄvel em seus caminhosdesde o dia em que foi criadoatĂ© que se achou maldade em vocĂȘ.
16 Por meio do seu amplo comĂ©rcio,vocĂȘ encheu-se de violĂȘnciae pecou.Por isso eu o lancei, humilhado, para longe do monte de Deus,e o expulsei, Ăł querubim guardiĂŁo,do meio das pedras fulgurantes.
17 Seu coração tornou-se orgulhosopor causa da sua beleza,e vocĂȘ corrompeu a sua sabedoriapor causa do seu esplendor.Por isso eu o atirei Ă  terra;fiz de vocĂȘ um espetĂĄculo para os reis.
18 Por meio dos seus muitos pecados e do seu comĂ©rcio desonestovocĂȘ profanou os seus santuĂĄrios.Por isso fiz sair de vocĂȘ um fogo,que o consumiu,e reduzi vocĂȘ a cinzas no chĂŁo,Ă  vista de todos os que estavam observando.
19 Todas as naçÔes que o conheciamespantaram-se ao vĂȘ-lo;chegou o seu terrĂ­vel fim,vocĂȘ nĂŁo mais existirá”.
