Into the heart and mind of God, into his face, speaking after the manner of men; observing such gross and open wickedness, he determined within himself to show his resentment, manifest his wrath and displeasure, and take vengeance on such capital and impudent offenders:<\/p>\n I have set her blood upon the top of a rock, that it might not be covered<\/strong>; by way of just retaliation; that as her sin was publicly committed, and no repentance shown for it, so her punishment should be open and manifest to all the world, and no forgiveness should be granted her. The Targum is,<\/p>\n “I have revealed their sins, because they have shed innocent blood openly, that it might not be forgiven.”<\/p>\n (8) I have set.<\/strong>Here God Himself is said to do that which has just been charged upon Jerusalem. There is no inconsistency between the statements; Jerusalem gloried in her crimes, and God made those crimes conspicuous as the cause of her punishment.<\/p>\n Eze 24:8 That it might cause fury to come up to take vengeance; I have set her blood upon the top of a rock, that it should not be covered.<\/p>\n Ver. 8. I have set her blood upon the top of a rock.<\/strong> ] a<\/em> Where it will be seen afar off and for a long time. As her sin was in propatulo,<\/em> in open view, so, to cry quittance with her, shall her punishment likewise be; my visible vengeance shall follow her close at heels as a bloodhound. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n a<\/em> Agit cum illa ex lege talionis.<\/em> – Pol.<\/p>\n it might: Eze 5:13, Eze 8:17, Eze 8:18, Eze 22:30, Eze 22:31, Deu 32:21, Deu 32:22, 2Ki 22:17, 2Ch 34:25, 2Ch 36:16, 2Ch 36:17, Jer 7:18, Jer 7:20, Jer 15:1-4 <\/p>\n I have set: Eze 16:37, Eze 16:38, Eze 23:45, Deu 29:22-28, Jer 22:8, Jer 22:9, Mat 7:2, 1Co 4:5, Rev 17:1-6, Rev 18:5-10, Rev 18:16 <\/p>\n Reciprocal: 1Ki 2:5 – put Isa 26:21 – also Jer 4:4 – lest Jer 21:12 – lest Jer 36:7 – for Jer 44:6 – my fury Eze 26:4 – make Hos 12:14 – therefore<\/p>\n Eze 24:8, Since these wicked women thus exposed disrespectfully the blood of innocent victims, the Lord in fury decreed that their guilty blood should likewise be exposed to the public view by spreading it upon a rock.<\/p>\n Therefore Yahweh was draining the blood out of Jerusalem by allowing the Babylonians to slay the Jews in it. The innocent blood that the Jerusalemites had shed had cried out to God for Him to take vengeance and to execute wrath on the murderers, as Abel’s blood had done (Gen 4:10; cf. Isa 26:21). As the people of Jerusalem had shed blood openly, so the Lord would shed their blood openly, on the bare rock of Jerusalem.<\/p>\n "The severe judgment sent by God upon Judah should be ample warning to those today who share the same callous disregard for the value of human life, both the born and the unborn."
