They; <\/B>founders, who melt down metals to prove them. <\/P>
Gather silver, <\/B>& c.: if these different kinds of metals be to be gathered into one and the same furnace, it speaks the involving all promiscuously in the same afflictions; if it be meant as each distinct metal is tried by the fire in the furnace, but by fire proportioned to the stubbornness of the metal, then it bespeaks the future affliction shall be such as shall melt down the hardest of the degenerate idolaters and sinners. <\/P>
To blow the fire; <\/B>to raise the fierceness of the fire. <\/P>
To melt it; <\/B>till it be melted. So will I gather you: see Eze 23:19<\/span>. <\/P> In mine anger; <\/B>in great but just displeasure, called fury too here, and elsewhere: such were the sins of this people, that they had kindled a fire against them which should surely consume them. <\/P> I will leave you there; <\/B>or, I will sit down and rest me, as the founder, when he hath taken pains to gather in the metal, heaped up the wood, kindled fire, and blown it to its full height, rests himself, observing how the metal melts down: God will so rest himself; after the manner of man it is spoken; the like phrase Eze 5:13<\/span>; 16:42<\/span>, which see. <\/P> And melt you; <\/B>he will take care the fire go not out till you are melted, either to the purging away, or consuming you with your dross. <\/P> <\/p>\n As they gather silver, and brass, and iron, and lead, and tin, into the midst of the furnace<\/strong>,…. As refiners of metal do; though not together, as here, but each metal apart. Silver is here mentioned, to denote that those who were truly good should suffer in this calamity, and be tried and purified by it:<\/p>\n to blow the fire upon it, and to melt it<\/strong>; the metal being covered with fuel, this is kindled and blown upon, to cause the greater heat, in order to melt it down; expressive of the wrath of God, as follows:<\/p>\n so will I gather you in mine anger and in my fury<\/strong>; from the several parts of the land unto the city of Jerusalem: this they thought was for their good and safety, but it was in wrath, and in order to ruin:<\/p>\n and I will leave you there, and melt you<\/strong>; that is, I will leave you in the city of Jerusalem, to the sword, famine, and pestilence, to be destroyed by them; or with fire at the burning of the city: or, “I will rest” g; as the refiner does; having put his metal into the furnace, and blown the fire, sits still till all is melted.<\/p>\n g “et requiescam”, Mercerus; “et requiescere faciam”, Paguinus, Montanus, Vatablus.<\/p>\n (20) I will leave you there.<\/strong>Better, I will cast you in. Eze 22:20<\/span> [As] they gather silver, and brass, and iron, and lead, and tin, into the midst of the furnace, to blow the fire upon it, to melt [it]; so will I gather [you] in mine anger and in my fury, and I will leave [you there], and melt you.<\/p>\n Ver. 20. As they gather silver and brass.<\/strong> ] The righteous perish with the wicked; but either it is temporally only, or else the seemingly righteous, who are no better than “reprobate silver.” <\/p>\n <\/p>\n And I will leave you there.<\/strong> ] A terrible threat. God will bring his enemies into the briers and there leave them. See Eze 29:5<\/span> . His own he will not leave, or at least not forsake. He will be with them in the fire and water, &c. “Lord, leave us not,” saith the Church. Jer 17:17 <\/p>\n I will leave you there. The letter? (Pe-P) in ve hippihti, in being transferred from the ancient Hebrew into the modern square character, was probably mistaken for the? (Nun = N), being much alike. If so, “I will blow” became “I will leave”; and the words “you there” had to be necessarily supplied. By this change the correspondence of the two verses (20, 21) is restored: – Eze 22:20. Gather . . . blow . . . melt: Eze 22:21. Gather . ., blow . . . melt. <\/p>\n As they gather: Heb. According to the gathering <\/p>\n to blow: Eze 22:21, Eze 21:31, Eze 21:32, Isa 54:16 <\/p>\n in mine: Eze 24:13, Jer 4:11, Jer 4:12, Jer 4:20 <\/p>\n Reciprocal: Jer 36:7 – for Eze 20:47 – I will kindle Eze 22:18 – brass<\/p>\n Eze 22:20. Not that these people were to be left in Jerusalem, except until they would be subjected to the siege and made to feel the heat of Gods wrath.<\/p>\n 22:20 [As] they gather silver, and brass, and iron, and lead, and tin, into the midst of the furnace, to blow the fire upon it, to melt [it]; so will I gather [you] in my anger and in my fury, and I will leave [you there], {l} and melt you.<\/p>\n (l) Meaning by this that the godly would be tried and the wicked destroyed.<\/p>\n [As] they gather silver, and brass, and iron, and lead, and tin, into the midst of the furnace, to blow the fire upon it, to melt [it]; so will I gather [you] in mine anger and in my fury, and I will leave [you there], and melt you.
