Matthew Poole and continuators on Ezekiel 20:33

33 As I live, saith the Lord GOD, surely with a mighty hand, and with a stretched out arm, and with fury pour'd out will I rule over you.

See ver. 3.

So mighty, that you shall never wrest your selves out of it, you think to revolt, and get out of my hand, but you shall hereby discover your own folly, malice, and weakness.

Which reacheth every where, whence you can never flee, which shall be most visible.

In hot, but just indignation.

As an inundation from a mighty River, or like a violent storm poured from the Clouds, or, as a full Vessel emptied all at once.

Retain my right over you, and exercise it on you, as on combined Rebels, since you will refuse my Rule, as over-Loyal Subjects. If you will not be my free Subjects, you shall be [illegible: 1 letter]ettered Slaves; the chains of Affliction, the restraints of Providence crossing you, the Execution of my Menaces shall be too sharp, and thick hedge for you to break through; I'le make every place, where you are, a Prison for strength to confine you, and I will make it a Prison for the sorrows, and hardships you shall there endure, and all this in my fury.
