How preachers through history handled this text
29 public-domain excerpts on Ezekiel 7, from the church fathers to the Puritans.
“These verses are much confused in the Septuagint, and this seems to have been the case in Jerome's time. The Greek Codexes of the Alexandrian version do not agree, as we find from Theodoret and the Arabic version. Theodoret and the Chaldee paraphrast follow the Hebrew order; and the latter, from gyny, gnini, "my eye," puts mymry, mimri, "my word," for the sake of avoiding "these anthropomorphic phrases." The thirteenth verse evidently refers to the year of jubilee. …”
— Calvin, Commentary on Ezekiel - Volume 2, on Ezekiel 7:3–30 (Public Domain)
