Ezequiel 7:21 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 7:21

And I will give it into the hands of the strangers for a prey,
&c.] The Babylonians, who lived in a foreign country, and were strangers to the commonwealth of Israel; the temple was suffered of the Lord to fall into their hands as a prey; who spoiled it of all its riches and glory, and carried away the vessels of gold, of silver, and of brass, and other valuable things; see ( Jeremiah 52:17-23 ) ; and to the wicked of the earth for a spoil;
meaning the same persons, and the same thing, and the same use they should make of it; for not the wicked of the world in general are meant, but of the land, or this land; the land of Babylon, where the prophet was: and they shall pollute it;
by entering into it and spoiling it, by pillaging and burning it.

Ezequiel 7:21 In-Context

19 Arrojarán su plata por las calles, y su oro será desechado; su plata ni su oro, no podrá librarlos en el día del furor de Jehová; no saciarán su alma, ni henchirán sus entrañas: porque ha sido tropiezo para su maldad.
20 Por cuanto la gloria de su ornamento pusieron en soberbia, é hicieron en ella imágenes de sus abominaciones, de sus estatuas: por eso se la torné á ellos en alejamiento;
21 Y en mano de extraños la entregué para ser saqueada, y en despojo á los impíos de la tierra, y la contaminarán.
22 Y apartaré de ellos mi rostro, y violarán mi lugar secreto; pues entrarán en él destruidores, y le profanarán.
23 Haz una cadena: porque la tierra está llena de juicios de sangres, y la ciudad está llena de violencia.
