Ezekiel 34:24 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 34:24

And I the Lord will be their God
The God of them Christ is the shepherd of, and whom he feeds; the sheep and poor of the flock: this is the great blessing of the everlasting covenant, and than which there cannot be a greater, to have the Lord, the everlasting and unchangeable Jehovah, to be a covenant God and Father: and my servant David a Prince among them;
who should reside among them, dwell with them, by granting them his spiritual presence, and so rule over them, protect and defend them; even he who is the Prince of the kings of the earth, and is exalted, a Prince and a Saviour of his people Israel; he is such a Shepherd as that he is a Prince; and such a Prince as that he is a Saviour and under whose princely government is the greatest safety: I the Lord have spoken it;
and therefore it shall assuredly be. The Targum is,

``I the Lord have decreed it in my word;''

he had determined it within himself, and promised it in covenant, and spoke of it in prophecy, and it should be fulfilled.

Ezekiel 34:24 In-Context

22 Je sauverai mon troupeau, afin qu'il ne soit plus exposé au pillage, et je jugerai entre brebis et brebis.

23 J'établirai sur elles un seul pasteur qui les paîtra: David, mon serviteur; il les paîtra, et il sera lui-même leur pasteur;

24 Et moi l'Éternel, je serai leur Dieu, et David, mon serviteur, sera prince au milieu d'elles. Moi, l'Éternel, j'ai parlé.

25 Je traiterai avec elles une alliance de paix, et j'exterminerai du pays les bêtes sauvages; et mes brebis habiteront en sécurité au désert, et dormiront dans les bois.

26 Je les comblerai de bénédictions, elles et les environs de mon coteau; en sa saison je ferai tomber la pluie: ce seront des pluies de bénédiction.
