Ezekiel Chapter 34 Prophecy Against the Shepherds of Israel. The Lord God Will Seek Them Out. The Lord's Covenant of Peace
 
Chapter XXXIV

A charge against the shepherds of Israel, ver. 1 - 6. Their dismission from their trust, ver. 7 - 10. A promise, that God would take care of his flock, ver. 11 - 16. Another charge against the strong of the flock, for their injuring the weak, ver. 17 - 22. A promise of the Messiah, the great and good shepherd, ver. 23 - 31.

2 The shepherds - The rulers of the people kings, magistrates, and princes; as also priests, and prophets. Of Israel - The two tribes, and the few out of the ten that adhere to the house of David. That feed - Contrive their own ease, advantage, and honour.
3 Ye kill - You contrive methods, to take first the life, and next the estate of the well - fed, the rich and wealthy. But - You take care to lead, protect, provide for, and watch over them.
4 The diseased - The weak and languishing. Bound up - Oppressors in the state, or church, broke many then, but these shepherds bound them not up.
5 No shepherd - No vigilant, faithful shepherd. Became meat - Were made a prey of, and devoured by all their neighbours.
12 In the cloudy and dark day - In the time of general distress.
16 The fat - The powerful and rich. I will feed - I will judge and punish them.
17 I judge - Between men and men, between the smaller and weaker, and the greater and stronger, as their different state requires I will do. The rams - Rulers, who also shalt be dealt with according to their behaviour.
18 But ye must tread down - You great ones, eat the fat, and sweet; and what you cannot eat, you waste and spoil. The deep waters - Which are sufficient for all.
20 I will judge - I will vindicate the poor. The fat cattle - The rich. The lean - The poor.
23 One shepherd - Christ, the great good, chief, only shepherd, that laid down his life for his sheep. My servant David - The seed of David, the beloved one, who was typified by David, and is in other places called by his name, as Jer 30:9 Eze 37:24 Isa 37:35 Hos 3:5. He shall feed - Do all the office of a good and faithful shepherd, and that for ever.
24 My servant - Christ was in this great work his fathers servant, Isa 42:1.
25 A covenant - A covenant of promises, which contain, and shall bring peace, that is all good.
26 Them - My returned captives, The places - All the country. My hill - Jerusalem.
29 A plant - The Messiah. The shame - The reproach.
30 Their God - By covenant, from their forefathers. Am with them - Present with them, and reconciled to them.
