Matthew Poole and continuators on Ezekiel 21:25

25 ¶ And thou , profane wicked prince of Israel, whose day is come, when iniquity shall have an end.

Zedekiah.

Tainted with secret deep irreligious opinions, whence he despised God, and his oath, and prophaned the name of God.

So much was his royal dignity lessened, that indeed he was rather a Prince subject, and dependent, then a King.

Day of sorrows, and sufferings, and punishment is at hand.

The irreligion, which is spread by thee among thy Courtiers shall cease to spread it self, because of thy low estate. Or, when iniquity shall bring the fatal ruine of King, and Kingdom, and both shall be destroyed, and with the overthrow of your state the opportunities, and means of sinning shall end too.
