Clarke's Ezekiel 7:10 Bible Commentary

Behold the day - The same words are repeated, sometimes varied, and pressed on the attention with new figures and new circumstances, in order to alarm this infatuated people. Look at the day! It is come!

The morning is gone forth - It will wait no longer. The rod that is to chastise you hath blossomed; it is quite ready.

Pride hath budded - Your insolence, obstinacy, and daring opposition to God have brought forth their proper fruits.

Barnes's Ezekiel 7:10 Bible Commentary

Rod - Used here for tribe Exodus 31:2. The people of Judah have blossomed into proud luxuriance. In Ezekiel 7:11 it means the rod to punish wickedness. The meaning of the passage is obscure, owing to the brief and enigmatic form of the utterance. We may adopt the following explanation. The Jews had ever exulted in their national privileges - everything great and noble was to be from them and from theirs; but now Yahweh raises up the rod of the oppressor to confound and punish the rod of His people. The furious Chaldaean has become an instrument of God's wrath, endued with power emanating not from the Jews or from the multitude of the Jews, or from any of their children or people; nay, the destruction shall be so complete that none shall be left to make lamentation over them.

Wesley's Ezekiel 7:10 Bible Commentary

7:10 Is come - Of your wickedness; pride and violence in particular.
