21<\/strong>. polluted my sabbaths<\/em> ] profaned.<\/p>\n These unhappy children do even as their fathers in all points of disobediences to God; are as deaf to his counsel, and as averse to his law, which here is point by point recounted, and is the same with Eze 20:13<\/span>, where see it explained. <\/P> <\/p>\n 21.<\/B> Though warned by thejudgment on their fathers, the next generation also rebelled againstGod. The “kindness of Israel’s youth and love of her espousalsin the wilderness” (Jer 2:2<\/span>;Jer 2:3<\/span>) were only comparative(the corruption in later times being more general), and confined tothe minority; as a whole, Israel at no time fully served God. The”children” it was that fell into the fearful apostasy onthe plains of Moab at the close of the wilderness sojourn (Num 25:1<\/span>;Num 25:2<\/span>; Deu 31:27<\/span>).<\/P><\/p>\n Notwithstanding the children rebelled against me<\/strong>,…. After the death of their fathers, when they were come into the plains of Moab, and just going to enter the land; they rebelled against the Lord, and greatly provoked him, by joining themselves to Baalpeor, the idol of Moab, they worshipped, Nu 25:3<\/span>;<\/p>\n they walked not in my statutes, neither kept my judgments to do them<\/strong>; they did as their fathers before them; though they saw with their eyes the judgments of God upon them, yet this did not deter them from following their evil ways:<\/p>\n which [if] a man do, he shall even live in them<\/strong>;<\/p>\n [See comments on Eze 20:13]<\/span>;<\/p>\n they polluted my sabbaths<\/strong>; just as their fathers had done, taking no warning by them, and what befell them:<\/p>\n then I said, I would pour out my fury upon them, to accomplish mine anger against them in the wilderness<\/strong>; twenty and four thousand died on account of the idolatry of Baalpeor, Nu 25:9<\/span>.<\/p>\n I join these four verses together, because they have been already explained, and I do not wish to burden you with useless repetitions. In short, God accuses the whole posterity, because they were by no means more obedient than their fathers. Again, he charges them with rebellion, since they neither obeyed His commands, nor were persuaded by mild promises; for, on the one hand, he demanded the worship due to him, and invited them softly by the promise of reward. He complains that; neither plan succeeded. He adds, what we have already seen, that he proposed to scatter them through various quarters of the world, and utterly to dissipate them. He assigns as a reason for his moderation his unwillingness that his name should be profaned among the nations: he also announces that they had never restrained their impiety from bursting forth, and hence it was only through his own incredible patience and indulgence that they had not perished a hundred, nay, a thousand times. The rest may be gathered from the previous context. It follows — <\/p>\n (21) The children rebelled.<\/strong>The history of the wanderings in the wilderness, given in Exodus and Numbers, offers abundant illustrations of the truth of this and the following verse.<\/p>\n 21<\/strong>. <\/strong> Notwithstanding, the children rebelled against me <\/strong> These sinned even as their fathers (Num 25:1-2<\/span>; Deu 9:23-24<\/span>; Deu 31:27<\/span>).<\/p>\n “But the children rebelled against me. They did not walk in my statutes, neither did they keep my judgments to do them, which if a man does he will live in them. They profaned my sabbaths. Then I said I would pour out my fury on them, to accomplish my anger against them in the wilderness.”<\/p>\n But the sad tale of rebellion was repeated. Once again they had turned from the covenant requirements which were designed to give them a full and abounding life, and had done what was wrong in God’s sight. And this included the fact that they had also failed to do what was right. Again they had profaned the Sabbath. So God had once more determined to bring judgment on them in His anger (His set attitude against sin), even there in the wilderness.<\/p>\n Eze 20:21<\/span><\/em><\/strong>. <\/strong>Which if a man do, he shall even live in them<\/em><\/strong><\/strong> These statutes were therefore good ones. But they had been scattered among the heathen, and dispersed through the countries, because, <\/em>as God complains, they had not executed his judgments, but despised his sabbaths; <\/em>he adds, therefore, Eze 20:25<\/span>. Wherefore, <\/em>namely because of their disobedience, I gave them statutes which were not good, <\/em>that is to say, did not eventually prove of that advantage and benefit to them which they otherwise would have done; and judgments <\/em>(as it should be rendered) which they will not live by; <\/em>that is to say, by a due observance of which they will not secure their own prosperity and safety. See Rom 7:10<\/span> and Chandler’s Life of David, vol. 1: p. 2. <\/p>\n Eze 20:21 Notwithstanding the children rebelled against me: they walked not in my statutes, neither kept my judgments to do them, which [if] a man do, he shall even live in them; they polluted my sabbaths: then I said, I would pour out my fury upon them, to accomplish my anger against them in the wilderness.<\/p>\n Ver. 21.
