Eze 28:25 | KingComments | STEP | As is so often the case in Scripture, we see that after the judgment on the nations, there will be blessing for Israel. While the surrounding nations are being ravaged, the LORD will gather the people of Israel from the nations among which He scattered them in His judgment ( ). Then they will sanctify Him; they will give Him the place in their midst that He has desired for so long. The nations will see it. Israel will live in its own land. It is the land that the LORD gave His servant Jacob. God’s people will then live in it securely and without worry, for their God protects them ( ). From the surrounding nations they will have nothing more to fear, for God judged those nations at the beginning of the realm of peace. Those nations will no longer attack them or even mock them. The judgments have caused them to bow down before God and acknowledge His authority, though by many that will be done only hypocritical. However, no one will be able to deny anymore that He, the LORD, is their God, that He is the God of Israel. To know Him is all that matters. To know Him is everything.

‏ Ezekiel 28:25

Promise of Restoration for Israel

As is so often the case in Scripture, we see that after the judgment on the nations, there will be blessing for Israel. While the surrounding nations are being ravaged, the LORD will gather the people of Israel from the nations among which He scattered them in His judgment (Eze 28:25). Then they will sanctify Him; they will give Him the place in their midst that He has desired for so long. The nations will see it. Israel will live in its own land. It is the land that the LORD gave His servant Jacob.

God’s people will then live in it securely and without worry, for their God protects them (Eze 28:26). From the surrounding nations they will have nothing more to fear, for God judged those nations at the beginning of the realm of peace. Those nations will no longer attack them or even mock them. The judgments have caused them to bow down before God and acknowledge His authority, though by many that will be done only hypocritical. However, no one will be able to deny anymore that He, the LORD, is their God, that He is the God of Israel. To know Him is all that matters. To know Him is everything.
