Ezekiel 34:14

John Gill - Exposition - John Gill

I will feed them in a good pasture,.... Or with good food, as the Targum: such as the fulness of grace in Christ, where believers go in and out, and find pasture; and where they may feed to the full, have bread enough, and to spare; and may draw water with joy out of the full wells of salvation: this is good food; food indeed, in opposition to...

Ezekiel 34:14

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

I will feed them in a good pasture, and upon the high mountains of Israel shall their fold be: there shall they lie in a good fold, and in a fat pasture shall they feed upon the mountains of Israel. When God works, he does nothing by halves, nothing scantily. There shall be a pasture, and it shall be fat; his people shall feed; they shall feed...

Ezekiel 34:15

John Gill - Exposition - John Gill

I will feed my flock,.... This is repeated for the further confirmation of it, that it might be depended upon that the Lord would feed his people in the manner before promised; and it gives a reason why he would do it, because they were his flock; he had a right unto them, a property in them; they were separated and distinguished from others by...

Ezekiel 34:15

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

I will feed my flock, and I will cause them to lie down, saith the Lord God. Happy sheep that have such a guardian! Happy believer if you are realizing today the full meaning of this, “I will feed my flock.” Only God can do it, but he can do it very effectually until the heart is satisfied with favor, and full of the blessing of the Lord.

Ezekiel 34:16

John Gill - Exposition - John Gill

And I will seek that which was lost,.... As all men are in Adam, and through his fall, and by their own actual transgressions; and so the elect of God among the rest; who are lost not with respect to God's knowledge of them, love to them, and care for them; but with respect to their knowledge of him, affection for him, and regard to his will,...

Ezekiel 34:16

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

I will seek that which was lost, and bring again that which was driven away, and will bind up that which was broken, and will strengthen that which was sick: but I will destroy the fat and the strong; I will feed them with judgment. It is a sweet thing, then, to be one of the needy ones of the flock because you see all the promises run that way,...

Ezekiel 34:16

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

I will seek that which was lost, and bring again that which was driven away, and will bind up that which was broken, and will strengthen that which was sick: but I will destroy the fat and the strong; I will feed them with judgment. Men that are proud and lifted up shall meet with no blessing, but such as feel their poverty, their weakness, their...

Ezekiel 34:16

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

I will seek that which was lost, and bring again that which was driven away, — Ah, one little thinks, perhaps, that there should be such a thing as a poor sheep driven away; but it is sometimes true! A legal preacher drives Christ’s sheep away from Christ. A seeking soul would fain come to Jesus; but he is told that he must be something, and do...

Ezekiel 34:17

John Gill - Exposition - John Gill

And as for you, O my flock, thus saith the Lord God,.... Having done with the shepherds, and the complaint against them, the Lord proceeds to take notice of the flock, or the people themselves, and the evils that were among them; for in the Lord's own flock, in the nation and church of Israel, as now in the visible congregated churches of Christ,...

And as for you, O my flock, thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I judge between cattle and cattle, between the rams and the he goats.

Ezekiel 34:18

John Gill - Exposition - John Gill

Seemeth it a small thing unto you to have eaten up the good pasture,.... This is directed to the rams and he goats, to the people of power and wealth, or who had the key of knowledge and instruction; who, by their conduct, showed as if it was not enough for them to eat and drink the best of things themselves, to enjoy their wealth and riches, and...

Ezekiel 34:19

John Gill - Exposition - John Gill

And as for my flock, they eat that which ye have trodden with your feet,.... They are forced to do it, not being able to come at any thing else; being as sheep without a shepherd, or worse: and they drink that which ye have fouled with your feet; which, as it cannot be agreeable and relishing, so neither wholesome; as the leaven of the Scribes and...
