Wesley's Notes

21:5 Shall not return - It shall not return into the scabbard 'till it hath done full execution.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

21:1-17 Here is an explanation of the parable in the last chapter. It is declared that the Lord was about to cut off Jerusalem and the whole land, that all might know it was his decree against a wicked and rebellious people. It behoves those who denounce the awful wrath of God against sinners, to show that they do not desire the woful day. The example of Christ teaches us to lament over those whose ruin we declare. Whatever instruments God uses in executing his judgments, he will strengthen them according to the service they are employed in. The sword glitters to the terror of those against whom it is drawn. It is a sword to others, a rod to the people of the Lord. God is in earnest in pronouncing this sentence, and the prophet must show himself in earnest in publishing it.


1 Samuel 3:12 "In that day I will carry out against Eli all that I have spoken concerning his house, from beginning to end.
Jeremiah 23:20 "The anger of the LORD will not turn back Until He has performed and carried out the purposes of His heart; In the last days you will clearly understand it.
Ezekiel 21:30 Return it to its sheath. In the place where you were created, in the land of your origin, I will judge you.
Nahum 1:9 Whatever you devise against the LORD, He will make a complete end of it. Distress will not rise up twice. (NASB ©1995)
