Adam Clarke's Bible Commentary Verse 2. Which have eyes to see, and see not] It is not want of grace that brings them to destruction. They have eyes to see, but they will not use them. No man is lost because he had not sufficient grace to save him, but because he abused that grace.
Matthew Henry Commentary
- A vision of the burning of the city. (Ezek. 10:1-7) The Divine glor departing from the temple. (Ezek. 10:8-22)
Ezek. 10:1-7 The fire being taken from between the wheels, under the cherubim, Ezek. 1:13, seems to have signified the wrath of God to be executed upon Jerusalem. It intimated that the fire of Divine wrath which kindles judgment upon a people, is just and holy; and in the great day, the earth, and all the works that are therein, will be burn up.
Ezek. 10:8-22 Ezekiel sees the working of Divine providence in the government of the lower world, and the affairs of it. When God is leaving a people in displeasure, angels above, and all events below further his departure. The Spirit of life, the Spirit of God, direct all creatures, in heaven and on earth, so as to make them serve the Divine purpose. God removes by degrees from a provoking people; and when ready to depart, would return to them, if they were a repenting praying people. Let this warn sinners to seek the Lord while he may be found, and to call on him while he is near, and cause us all to wal humbly and watchfully with our God _________________________________________________
