Wesley's Notes

19:5 Made him - King, and infused the lion - like maxims into him.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

5. saw that she had waited, and her hope was lost-that is, that her long-waited-for hope was disappointed, Jehoahaz not being restored to her from Egypt.

she took another of her whelps-Jehoiakim, brother of Jehoahaz, who was placed on the throne by Pharaoh (2Ki 23:34), according to the wish of Judah.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

19:1-9 Ezekiel is to compare the kingdom of Judah to a lioness. He must compare the kings of Judah to a lion's whelps; they were cruel and oppressive to their own subjects. The righteousness of God is to be acknowledged, when those who have terrified and enslaved others, are themselves terrified and enslaved. When professors of religion form connexions with ungodly persons, their children usually grow up following after the maxims and fashions of a wicked world. Advancement to authority discovers the ambition and selfishness of men's hearts; and those who spend their lives in mischief, generally end them by violence.


Ezekiel 19:4 'Then nations heard about him; He was captured in their pit, And they brought him with hooks To the land of Egypt.
Ezekiel 19:6 And he walked about among the lions; He became a young lion, He learned to tear his prey; He devoured men. (NASB ©1995)
