The Lord will take away their provision, that they may die with want, punished for all their sins, and disappointed of all that their false prophets promised them; and under strangest disappointments, be filled with strangest amazements and horrors, at the woeful miseries of one another, and falling dead in each others helpless sight. <\/P> <\/p>\n

That they may want bread and water<\/strong>,…. Or, “because they shall want” l c. therefore they shall eat the one, and drink the other, by weight or they shall do this till there shall be none to eat and drink:<\/p>\n and be astonished one with another<\/strong>; when they shall find they cannot relieve one another; and not knowing what method to take for the support of nature:<\/p>\n and consume away for their iniquity<\/strong>; their flesh upon them black through famine, putrid and noisome; and they wasting, pining, and consuming; reduced to skin and bones; and disagreeable to look upon; and all because of their sins and iniquities.<\/p>\n l “eo quod”, Munster, Vatablus; “propterea”, Tigurine version.<\/p>\n REFLECTIONS<\/p>\n<\/p>\n READER! amidst many very sweet and profitable subjects suggested to our contemplation by the several types in this Chapter, I feel my mind constrained to one or two more immediately striking; and may the Lord direct yours also to the contemplation of the same. Who can overlook the Lord Christ as the great burden-bearer of his Church and people, while reading of God’s appointment of Ezekiel to represent the bearing of iniquity: or, who that knows the blessedness of abundance, both in temporals and spirituals, but must be instantly led to eye Christ, as the bread of life, and the sanctifying mercy in the bread that perisheth with using, when sitting down to the enjoyment of either. Surely the Prophet was but the faintest type of Jesus, under the character of a burden-bearer, when laying on his side. Painful as the posture must have been, yet, what was it to Jesus hanging on the cross, suffering not only agonies of body, but the deepest anguish of soul when dying, the just for the unjust to bring us unto God! Precious Lord! may my soul behold thee often under this blessed character! And may I daily know, what it is to live upon thy fulness, and that the Holy Ghost breaketh to me daily of thee the staff of life, of which whosoever eateth shall live forever. Lord! evermore give me this bread!<\/p>\n Eze 4:17 That they may want bread and water, and be astonied one with another, and consume away for their iniquity.<\/p>\n Ver. 17. And be astonied.<\/strong> ] At their straits and disappointments. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n And consume away for their iniquity.<\/strong> ] They. shall “pine away in their iniquity”; Lev 26:31 this is the last and worst of judgments there threatened, after those other dismal ones.<\/p>\n consume away, &c. Reference to Pentateuch (Lev 26:39). Compare Eze 24:23; Eze 24:33. to (“pine away “). App-92. <\/p>\n and consume: Eze 24:23, Lev 26:39 <\/p>\n Reciprocal: Deu 28:28 – General Deu 28:48 – in hunger Job 21:25 – never Psa 80:5 – General Ecc 5:17 – he eateth Isa 3:1 – the stay Lam 5:9 – General Eze 12:18 – General Mic 6:14 – eat Hag 1:6 – eat<\/p>\n Eze 4:17. No material facts are added in this verse except to describe the immediate effects of the famine. Astonied is from shamem which Strong defines, To stun (or intransitively grow numb)The lack of food caused the people to grow numb and behold each other with a stunned countenance. All of this was to be brought upon them as a punishment for their iniquity.<\/p>\n That they may want bread and water, and be astonished one with another, and consume away for their iniquity.
