Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Ezekiel 16:6
COM commentary-section · status:draft · license:PD
6. when I passed by —as if a traveller. polluted in . . . blood —but PISCATOR, "ready to be trodden on." I said —In contrast to Israel's helplessness stands God's omnipotent word of grace which bids the outcast little one "live." in thy blood —Though thou wast foul with blood, I said, "Live" [GROTIUS]. "Live in thy blood," that is, Live, but live a life exposed to many deaths, as was the case in the beginnings of Israel's national existence, in order to magnify the grace of God [CALVIN]. The former view is preferable. Spiritually, till the sinner is made sensible of his abject helplessness, he will not appreciate the provisions of God's grace. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-7" class="com-number"
