E Z E K I E L. CHAP. XX. In this chapter, I. The prophet is consulted by some of the elders of Israel, Ezekiel 20:1 . II. He is instructed by his God what answer to give them. He must, 1. Signify God's displeasure against them, Ezekiel 20:2 ; Ezekiel 20:3 . And, 2. He must show them what just cause he had for that displeasure, by giving them a history of God's grateful dealings with their fathers and their treacherous dealings with God. (1.) In Egypt, Ezekiel 20:5-9 . (2.) In the wilderness, Ezekiel 20:10-26 . (3.) In Canaan, Ezekiel 20:27-32 . 3. He must denounce the judgments of God against them, Ezekiel 20:33-36 . 4. He must tell them likewise what mercy God had in store for them, when he would bring a remnant of them to repentance, re-establish them in their own land, and set up his sanctuary among them again, Ezekiel 20:37-44 . 5.
