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 Perfecto eras en todos tus caminos desde el día que fuiste creado, hasta que se halló en ti maldad.
16 A causa de la multitud de tu contratación fuiste lleno de iniquidad, y pecaste; y yo te eché del Monte de Dios, y te eché a mal de entre las piedras del fuego, oh querubín cubierto.
17 Se enalteció tu corazón a causa de tu hermosura, corrompiste tu sabiduría a causa de tu resplandor; yo te arrojaré por tierra; delante de los reyes te pondré para que miren en ti.
18 Con la multitud de tus maldades, y con la iniquidad de tu contratación ensuciaste tu santuario; yo , pues, saqué fuego de en medio de ti, el cual te consumió, y te puse en ceniza sobre la tierra a los ojos de todos los que te miran.
19 Todos los que te conocieron de entre los pueblos, se maravillarán sobre ti; conturbado fuistes, y nunca más serás para siempre.
