Ezequiel 36:13 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 36:13

Thus saith the Lord God, because they say unto you
The Heathens that dwelt round about the land of Judea said to the mountains, or to the whole land, thou land devourest up men;
eats up the inhabitants of it; which is part of the ill report the spies, in the times of Moses, brought on it, ( Numbers 13:32 ) , to which the allusion is here; suggesting, that either the air was unwholesome; or that the land did not produce a sufficiency of food to support the inhabitants of it; or that the curse of God was upon it; and that one judgment or another was ever on it; either famine, or pestilence, or the sword of the enemy, or internal broils among themselves, or wild beasts, whereby the inhabitants of the land were wasted and consumed: and hast bereaved thy nations;
the several tribes, of men and children; so that they were diminished and depopulated: the allusion seems to be to miscarrying women, or such who kill their children in the womb, and become abortive.

Ezequiel 36:13 In-Context

11 Multiplicarei os homens e os animais, e eles serĂŁo prolĂ­feros e se tornarĂŁo numerosos. Tornarei a povoĂĄ-los como no passado, e farei vocĂȘs prosperarem mais do que antes. EntĂŁo vocĂȘs saberĂŁo que eu sou o SENHOR.
12 Farei Israel, o meu povo, andar sobre vocĂȘs. VocĂȘs lhe pertencerĂŁo, serĂŁo a herança de Israel; vocĂȘs nunca mais os privarĂŁo dos seus filhos.
13 “Assim diz o Soberano, o SENHOR: Como de fato dizem a vocĂȘ: ‘VocĂȘ devora homens e priva a sua nação de filhos’,
14 vocĂȘ nĂŁo mais devorarĂĄ nem tornarĂĄ sua nação sem filhos. Palavra do Soberano, o SENHOR.
15 Eu nĂŁo permitirei mais que vocĂȘ ouça o sarcasmo das naçÔes, e vocĂȘ nĂŁo sofrerĂĄ mais a zombaria dos povos nem farĂĄ mais a sua nação cair. Palavra do Soberano, o SENHOR”.
