John Gill, on Ezek 11:8
John Gill · 1697–1771
Ezek 11:8 · Douay-Rheims
“You have feared the sword, and I will bring the sword upon you, saith the Lord God.”
On this verse:
“Ye have feared the sword,.... Of the Chaldeans; and therefore they sent to the Egyptians for help. The Targum is, "ye have been afraid of them that kill with the sword;'' and not afraid of the Lord; see Mat 10:28; and I will bring a sword upon you, saith the Lord God; or those that kill with the sword, as the Targum; meaning the Chaldeans, who were sent by the Lord, and, when they took the city, put many to death by the sword, and carried captive others.”
