24 And My servant David 'is' king over them, And one shepherd have they all, And in My judgments they go, And My statutes they keep, and have done them. 25 And they have dwelt on the land that I gave to My servant, to Jacob, In which your fathers have dwelt, And they have dwelt on it, they and their sons, And their son's sons—unto the age, And David My servant 'is' their prince—to the age. 26 And I have made to them a covenant of peace, A covenant age-during it is with them, And I have placed them, and multiplied them, And placed My sanctuary in their midst—to the age. 27 And My tabernacle hath been over them, And I have been to them for God, And they have been to Me for a people. 28 And known have the nations that I Jehovah am sanctifying Israel, In My sanctuary being in their midst—to the age!'
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Ezekiel 37:24-28
Commentary on Ezekiel 37:15-28
(Read Ezekiel 37:15-28)
This emblem was to show the people, that the Lord would unite Judah and Israel. Christ is the true David, Israel's King of old; and those whom he makes willing in the day of his power, he makes to walk in his judgments, and to keep his statutes. Events yet to come will further explain this prophecy. Nothing has more hindered the success of the gospel than divisions. Let us study to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace; let us seek for Divine grace to keep us from detestable things; and let us pray that all nations may be obedient and happy subjects of the Son of David, that the Lord may be our God, and we may be his people for evermore.
