The meaning of the words is very profound, implying closer fellowship and deeper feelings accompanying it than can well be expressed.<\/p>\n David a prince<\/em> ] David is here called “prince”; in Eze 37:22<\/span>; Eze 37:24<\/span> he is named “king” (though LXX. avoids the term). The term “prince” is common in Ezek., and does not imply a dignity inferior to that of royalty.<\/p>\n Verse 24<\/span>. I the Lord will be their God, and my Servant David a<\/B><\/I> <\/B>Prince<\/B><\/I>] Here we find God and his Christ are all in all<\/I> in his Church, and Jesus is still PRINCE among them<\/I>; and to him the call<\/I> and qualifications<\/I> of all genuine pastors belong, and from<\/I> him they must be derived. And he has blotted out what is called uninterrupted succession<\/I>, that every Christian minister may seek and receive credentials from himself. Here is the grand reason why the uninterrupted succession cannot be made out<\/I>. And here is the proof also that the Church that pretends to it<\/I>, and builds upon it, must be a false Church<\/I>; for it is founded on a falsity; an uninterrupted succession<\/I> which does not exist either in history<\/I> or in fact<\/I>.<\/P> <\/p>\n The Lord; <\/B>the glorious, gracious, eternal One. <\/P> Will be their God; <\/B>I so put them into Christs hand, that still I am and will be their God; yea, I will, through this my servant David, be their God. <\/P> My servant; <\/B>Christ was in this great work his Fathers servant, Isa 42:1<\/span>; 52:13<\/span>; Eze 37:24<\/span>,25<\/span>. David<\/I>; as Eze 34:23<\/span>; Christ, called David there as well as here. <\/P> Prince; <\/B>so Christ is Prince and Saviour to his church, Act 5:31<\/span>. <\/P> I the Lord have spoken it; <\/B>God seals it with this as his oath unchangeable. <\/P> <\/p>\n 24. my servant<\/B>implyingfitness for ruling in the name of God, not pursuing a self-chosencourse, as other kings, but acting as the faithful administrator ofthe will of God; Messiah realized fully this character (Psa 40:7<\/span>;Psa 40:8<\/span>; Isa 42:1<\/span>;Isa 49:3<\/span>; Isa 49:6<\/span>;Isa 53:11<\/span>; Phi 2:7<\/span>),which David typically and partially represented (Ac13:36<\/span>); so He is the fittest person to wield the world scepter,abused by all the world kings (Dan 2:34<\/span>;Dan 2:35<\/span>; Dan 2:44<\/span>;Dan 2:45<\/span>).<\/P><\/p>\n And I the Lord will be their God<\/strong>,…. The God of them Christ is the shepherd of, and whom he feeds; the sheep and poor of the flock: this is the great blessing of the everlasting covenant, and than which there cannot be a greater, to have the Lord, the everlasting and unchangeable Jehovah, to be a covenant God and Father:<\/p>\n and my servant David a Prince among them<\/strong>; who should reside among them, dwell with them, by granting them his spiritual presence, and so rule over them, protect and defend them; even he who is the Prince of the kings of the earth, and is exalted, a Prince and a Saviour of his people Israel; he is such a Shepherd as that he is a Prince; and such a Prince as that he is a Saviour and under whose princely government is the greatest safety:<\/p>\n I the Lord have spoken it<\/strong>; and therefore it shall assuredly be. The Targum is,<\/p>\n “I the Lord have decreed it in my word;”<\/p>\n he had determined it within himself, and promised it in covenant, and spoke of it in prophecy, and it should be fulfilled.<\/p>\n Eze 34:24 And I the LORD will be their God, and my servant David a prince among them; I the LORD have spoken [it].<\/p>\n Ver. 24. And I the Lord will be their God.<\/strong> ] This is that beehive of heavenly honey we so oft meet with in the Old Testament, which therefore those sectaries have so little reason to reject. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n And my servant David a prince among them.<\/strong> ] Captain of the Lord’s hosts, Jos 6:2 captain also of his people’s salvation, Heb 2:10 Messiah the prince. Dan 9:25 <\/p>\n God. Hebrew. Elohim. App-4. <\/p>\n Prince = a leader.

The comments in the preceding verse on David apply here. Will be their God has special significance as a contrast with the false gods that ancient Israel worshiped. The new kingdom that will be established under the son of David will have the recognition of God in its divine origin and reign. God has always offered to be the supreme One for any individual who would serve him.<\/p>\n And I the LORD will be their God, and my servant David a prince among them; I the LORD have spoken [it]. 24.
