Ezekiel - 12:20 Meaning
“And the cities that are inhabited shall be laid waste, and the land shall be desolate; and ye shall know that I am the LORD.”
King James Version (KJV)
Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary
12:17-20 The prophet must eat and drink in care and fear, with trembling, that he might express the condition of those in Jerusalem during the siege. When ministers speak of the ruin coming upon sinners, they must speak as those that know the terrors of the Lord. Afflictions are happy ones, however grievous to flesh and blood, that improve us in the knowledge of God.
“And these are the kings that reigned in the land of Edom, before there reigned any king over the children of Israel.”
