Ezekiel28:26
26 And they shall dwell safely therein, and shall build houses, and plant vineyards; yea, they shall dwell with confidence, when I have executed judgments upon all those that despised them round about them; and they shall know that I am the Lord their GOD.
Which is to be understood comparatively, safer than before, it must be accommodated to the circumstances of Humane condition, in such safety, as excludes continual inward cares, and fears, and perplexities, as 'tis said of Laish, Iudg 18.7. or as in the dayes of Solomon, 1 King. 4.25. or as Iob 11.18, 19.
That seems to intimate, that there might be some attempts as by Sanballat, and Tobias, but God blasted these, or it may refer more properly to the destruction of Babylon, and the Nations Confederate with them, who ruined, and despised the Iews.
Returned Captives.
Shall own, and know by experience, that I am not only the Lord, but their God too.
Marginal references: Or, with confidence.; Jer. 31.5.; Or, spoil.
