Ezequiel 36
Nueva Traducción BibliaTodo (NTBT) · Español
1 «Tú, hijo de hombre, profetiza a los montes de Israel y di: Montes de Israel, escuchen la palabra de Jehová. 2 Así dice el Señor Jehová: Porque el enemigo dijo de ustedes: “¡Ajá! Las alturas antiguas han pasado a ser posesión nuestra”, 3 por eso, profetiza y di: Así dice el Señor Jehová: Precisamente porque los han asolado y acosado por todas partes, hasta convertirse en posesión de las demás naciones, y por haber llegado a ser tema de habladurías y calumnias de la gente, 4 por eso, montes de Israel, escuchen la palabra del Señor Jehová. Así dice el Señor Jehová a los montes y a las colinas, a los cauces y a los valles, a las ruinas desoladas y a las ciudades abandonadas, que se han convertido en botín y burla de las demás naciones que los rodean: 5 Por eso, así dice el Señor Jehová: Ciertamente, en el fuego de mi celo he hablado contra las demás naciones y contra todo Edom, que se han apropiado de mi tierra, con alegría de todo corazón y con desprecio, para saquear sus pastizales. 6 Por eso, profetiza acerca de la tierra de Israel y di a los montes y a las colinas, a los cauces y a los valles: Así dice el Señor Jehová: He hablado en mi celo y en mi furor, porque han soportado la humillación de las naciones. 7 Por eso, así dice el Señor Jehová: He alzado mi mano: ciertamente las naciones que los rodean cargarán con su propia humillación. 8 Pero ustedes, montes de Israel, echarán sus ramas y darán su fruto para mi pueblo Israel, porque está cerca de venir. 9 Pues aquí estoy a favor de ustedes; me volveré hacia ustedes, y serán labrados y sembrados. 10 Multiplicaré sobre ustedes a los seres humanos, a toda la casa de Israel, toda ella. Las ciudades serán habitadas y las ruinas serán reconstruidas. 11 Multiplicaré sobre ustedes a seres humanos y animales; se multiplicarán y serán fecundos. Haré que vuelvan a ser habitados como antes y les haré más bien que en sus comienzos. Entonces sabrán que yo soy Jehová. 12 Haré que anden sobre ustedes seres humanos, mi pueblo Israel. Tomarán posesión de ti y serás su heredad; nunca más los dejarás sin hijos. 13 Así dice el Señor Jehová: Porque dicen de ustedes: “Eres devoradora de seres humanos y has dejado sin hijos a tus naciones”, 14 por eso, ya no devorarás seres humanos ni volverás a dejar sin hijos a tus naciones, declara el Señor Jehová. 15 Ya no te haré oír las injurias de las naciones; no volverás a cargar con los insultos de los pueblos ni volverás a hacer tropezar a tus naciones, declara el Señor Jehová». 16 La palabra de Jehová vino a mí: 17 «Hijo de hombre, cuando la casa de Israel habitaba en su tierra, la contaminó con su conducta y con sus acciones. Su conducta ante mí era como la impureza de una mujer durante su menstruación. 18 Derramé mi furor sobre ellos por la sangre que habían derramado en la tierra y porque la habían contaminado con sus ídolos. 19 Los dispersé entre las naciones y fueron esparcidos por los países. Los juzgué conforme a su conducta y a sus acciones. 20 Cuando llegaron a las naciones adonde fueron, profanaron mi santo nombre, pues se decía de ellos: “Estos son el pueblo de Jehová, y han salido de su tierra”. 21 Me preocupé por mi santo nombre, que la casa de Israel había profanado entre las naciones adonde fue. 22 Por eso, di a la casa de Israel: Así dice el Señor Jehová: No actúo por ustedes, casa de Israel, sino por mi santo nombre, que ustedes han profanado entre las naciones adonde fueron. 23 Mostraré la santidad de mi gran nombre, profanado entre las naciones, que ustedes han profanado en medio de ellas. Las naciones sabrán que yo soy Jehová, declara el Señor Jehová, cuando muestre mi santidad en ustedes ante sus ojos. 24 Los tomaré de entre las naciones, los reuniré de todos los países y los llevaré a su tierra. 25 Rociaré sobre ustedes agua limpia y quedarán limpios; los limpiaré de todas sus impurezas y de todos sus ídolos. 26 Les daré un corazón nuevo y pondré un espíritu nuevo dentro de ustedes. Quitaré de su carne el corazón de piedra y les daré un corazón de carne. 27 Pondré mi Espíritu dentro de ustedes y haré que sigan mis estatutos, guarden mis preceptos y los cumplan. 28 Habitarán en la tierra que di a sus padres. Ustedes serán mi pueblo y yo seré su Dios. 29 Los salvaré de todas sus impurezas. Llamaré al grano y lo multiplicaré; no traeré hambre sobre ustedes. 30 Multiplicaré el fruto de los árboles y la cosecha del campo, para que no vuelvan a sufrir la humillación del hambre entre las naciones. 31 Recordarán su mala conducta y sus acciones, que no fueron buenas, y se aborrecerán a ustedes mismos por sus culpas y por sus abominaciones. 32 No actúo por ustedes, declara el Señor Jehová; sépanlo bien. Avergüéncense y sientan humillación por su conducta, casa de Israel. 33 Así dice el Señor Jehová: El día en que los limpie de todas sus culpas, haré que las ciudades vuelvan a ser habitadas y las ruinas sean reconstruidas. 34 La tierra desolada será cultivada, en lugar de quedar desierta a la vista de todos los que pasan. 35 Dirán: “Esta tierra desolada se ha vuelto como el jardín de Edén, y las ciudades en ruinas, desoladas y derribadas están fortificadas y habitadas”. 36 Las naciones que queden a su alrededor sabrán que yo, Jehová, he reconstruido lo derribado y he plantado lo desolado. Yo, Jehová, he hablado y lo haré. 37 Así dice el Señor Jehová: Aún permitiré que la casa de Israel me pida hacer esto por ellos: multiplicaré a su gente como a un rebaño. 38 Como los rebaños consagrados, como los rebaños de Jerusalén en sus fiestas señaladas, así las ciudades en ruinas se llenarán de rebaños humanos. Entonces sabrán que yo soy Jehová».

Ezequiel 36:1
Introduction
The Edomites or Idumeans, during the Babylonish captivity, took possession of the mountainous parts of Judea, and the fortresses which commanded the country, intending to exclude the Jews if ever they should return from their captivity. The prophet therefore, by a beautiful personification, addresses the mountains of Israel; and, ascribing to them passions and emotions similar to those of his own breast, consoles them with the prospect of being soon rid of those usurping foes; of being freed from the dishonor of idols under which they groaned; and of flourishing again in their ancient glory under their rightful owners, Eze 36:1-15. The idolatry and other sins of the Jews are then declared to be the cause of their captivity and dispersion, Eze 36:16-20; from which however they are promised a deliverance in terms of great force and beauty, vv. 21-38. This chapter contains also, under the type of the happy condition of the Israelites after their restoration from the Babylonish captivity, a glorious prophecy of the rich blessings of the Gospel dispensation.
Verse 1
Prophesy unto the mountains of Israel - This is a part of the preceding prophecy though it chiefly concerns the Jews. In it they are encouraged to expect a glorious restoration, and that none of the evil wishes of their adversaries should take place against them.
Ezequiel 36:2-3
Verse 2
Because the enemy hath said - The Idumeans thought they would shortly be put in possession of all the strong places of Israel; the ancient high places shall be ours.
Ezequiel 36:4-7
Verse 4
Therefore - thus saith the Lord God to the mountains, etc. - They shall neither possess mountain nor valley, hill nor dale, fountain nor river; for though in my justice I made you desolate, yet they shall not profit by your disasters. See Eze 36:5-7.
Ezequiel 36:8
Verse 8
For they are at hand to come - The restoration of the Jews is so absolutely determined that you may rest assured it will take place; and be as confident relative to it, as if you saw the different families entering into the Israelitish borders. It was near at hand in God's determination, though there were about fifty-eight of the seventy years unelapsed.
Ezequiel 36:9-10
Verse 9
Ye shall be tilled and sown - The land shall be cultivated as it formerly was, when best peopled and at peace.
Ezequiel 36:11-16
Verse 11
I will multiply upon you man and beast - The agriculturalist and the beast of burden.
And will do better unto you than at your beginnings - I agree with Calmet, that it would be difficult to show the literal fulfillment of this prophecy from the days of Zerubbabel to the birth of Christ. The colouring is too high for that period; and the whole falls in better with Gospel than with Jewish times.
Ezequiel 36:17-19
Verse 17
When the house of Israel dwelt in their own land - Had they continued faithful to me, they had never been removed from it: but they polluted it with their crimes; and I abhorred the land on that account, and gave both them and it up to the destroyers.
Ezequiel 36:20-22
Verse 20
And when they entered unto the heathen - So bad were they, and so deeply fallen, that they profaned the Lord's name among the heathen; and, on their account, the true God was blasphemed. These, say they, are the people of Jehovah! O what an abominable people are these! and what a being must that God be who can have and own such for his people!
Ezequiel 36:23
Verse 23
I will sanctify my great name - By changing your hearts and your conduct, I shall show my hatred to vice, and my love to holiness: but it is not for your sakes, but for my holy name's sake, that I shall do you good in your latter days.
Ezequiel 36:24
Verse 24
I will take you from among the heathen - This does not relate to the restoration from Babylon merely. The Jews are at this day scattered in all Heathen, Mohammedan, and Christian countries. From these they are to be gathered, and brought to repossess their own land.
Ezequiel 36:25
Verse 25
Then - At the time of this great restoration - will I sprinkle clean water upon you - the truly cleansing water; the influences of the Holy Spirit typified by water, whose property it is to cleanse, whiten, purify, refresh, render healthy and fruitful.
From all your filthiness - From every sort of external and internal abomination and pollution.
And from all your idols - False gods, false worship, false opinions, and false hopes.
Will I cleanse you - Entirely separate you.
Ezequiel 36:26
Verse 26
A new heart also will I give you - I will change the whole of your infected nature; and give you new appetites, new passions; or, at least, the old ones purified and refined. The heart is generally understood to mean all the affections and passions.
And a new spirit will I put within you - I will renew your minds, also enlighten your understanding, correct your judgment, and refine your will, so that you shall have a new spirit to actuate your new heart.
I will take away the stony heart - That heart that is hard, impenetrable, and cold; the affections and passions that are unyielding, frozen to good, unaffected by heavenly things; that are slow to credit the words of God. I will entirely remove this heart: it is the opposite to that which I have promised you; and you cannot have the new heart and the old heart at the same time.
And I will give you a heart of flesh - One that can feel, and that can enjoy; that can feel love to God and to all men, and be a proper habitation for the living God.
Ezequiel 36:27
Verse 27
And I will put my Spirit within you - To keep the heart of flesh alive, the feeling heart still sensible, the loving heart still happy. I will put my Spirit, the great principle of light, life, and love, within you, to actuate the new spirit, and to influence the new affections and passions; that the animal spirit may not become brutish, that the mental powers become not foolish. I will put my Spirit within you, so that as the new spirit may influence the new heart, so will My Spirit influence Your new spirit, that each may have a proper mover; and then all will be pure, regular, and harmonious, when passion is influenced by reason, and reason by the Holy Ghost.
And the cause shall be evidenced by the effects; for I will cause you to walk in my statutes - not only to believe and reverence my appointments relative to what I command you to perform; but ye shall walk in them, your conduct shall be regulated by them. "And ye shall keep my judgments;" whatsoever I enjoin you to avoid. And ye shall do them - ye shall not only avoid every appearance of evil, but keep all my ordinances and commandments unblamably.
Here is the salvation that God promises to give to restored Israel; and here is the salvation that is the birthright of every Christian believer: the complete destruction of all sin in the soul, and the complete renewal of the heart; no sin having any place within, and no unrighteousness having any place without. "But where are they that are thus saved?"
Ans. Wherever true Christians are to be found. "But I know many true Christians that have not this salvation, but daily mourn over their evil hearts?"
Ans. They may be sincere, but they are not true Christians; i.e., such as are saved from their sins; the true Christians are those who are filled with the nature and Spirit of Christ. But I will ask a question in my turn: "Do those you mention think it a virtue to be always mourning over their impurities?" Most certainly. Then it is a pity they were not better instructed. It is right they should mourn while they feel an impure heart; but why do they not apply to that blood which cleanses from all unrighteousness, and to that Spirit which cleanses the very thoughts of the heart by his inspiration? Many employ that time in brooding and mourning over their impure hearts, which should be spent in prayer and faith before God, that their impurities might be washed away. In what a state of nonage are many members of the Christian Church!
Ezequiel 36:28
Verse 28
Ye shall be my people - Wholly given up to me in body, soul, and spirit.
And I will be your God - To fill you with love, joy, peace, meekness, gentleness, longsuffering, fidelity and goodness, to occupy your whole soul, and gratify your every desire.
Ezequiel 36:29
Verse 29
I will also save you from all your uncleannesses - I repeat it; "I Will save you from all your sins."
Ezequiel 36:30
Verse 30
Ye shall receive no more reproach of famine - Ye shall be daily and hourly fed with the bread that endures unto eternal life. "But will not those get proud, who are thus saved, if there be any such? and will they not undervalue the blood of the covenant, for then they shall not need it?" Ans. Hear what the Lord saith: -
Ezequiel 36:31-34
Verse 31
Then shall ye remember your own evil ways - Ye shall never forget that ye were once slaves of sin, and sold under sin; children of the wicked one; heirs to all God's curses, with no hope beyond hell. Such cleansed people never forget the horrible pit and the miry clay out of which they have been brought. And can they then be proud? No; they loathe themselves in their own sight. They never forgive themselves for having sinned against so good a God, and so loving a Savior. And can they undervalue Him by whose blood they were bought, and by whose blood they were cleansed? No! That is impossible: they now see Jesus as they ought to see him; they see him in his splendor, because they feel him in his victory and triumph over sin. To them that thus believe he is precious, and he was never so precious as now. As to their not needing him when thus saved from their sins, we may as well say, as soon may the creation not need the sustaining hand of God, because the works are finished! Learn this, that as it requires the same power to sustain creation as to produce it, so it requires the same Jesus who cleansed to keep clean. They feel that it is only through his continued indwelling, that they are kept holy, and happy, and useful. Were he to leave them the original darkness and kingdom of death would soon be restored.
Ezequiel 36:35
Verse 35
This land that was desolate by sin, is become like the garden of Eden by righteousness - Satan's blast is removed; God's blessing has taken place.
Ezequiel 36:36
Verse 36
Then the heathen - They shall see how powerful Jehovah is, and how fully he saves those who come unto and worship him.
Ezequiel 36:37
Verse 37
Thus saith the Lord God - In answer to the question, "Who shall have such blessings?" we say, they that pray, that seek earnestly, that strive to enter in at the strait gate. "Thus saith the Lord, I will yet for this be inquired of by the house of Israel." Neither Jew nor Gentile shall be thus saved who do not earnestly pray to God; and for this thing; for this complete salvation; this setting up of the kingdom of Christ upon earth, and particularly in their own souls.
Ezequiel 36:38
Verse 38
As the holy flock - The Church of Christ, without spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing.
The flock of Jerusalem - The Jerusalem that is from above, the city of the living God, the place where his Majesty dwells. As they came in ancient times to the solemn national feasts so shall they come when they have fully returned unto the Lord, and received his salvation by Christ Jesus.
I do not ask my reader's pardon for having considered this most beautiful chapter as relating, not to the restoration from the Babylonish captivity, but to the redemption under the new covenant by Jesus Christ. There is no period of the Jewish history from that time until now, to which it can be applied. It must belong to the Gospel dispensation, and if the Jews will still refuse, contradict, and blaspheme, let no Christian have any fellowship with them in their opposition to this Almighty Savior. Let none be indifferent to his salvation; let all plead his promises; and let the messengers of the Churches proclaim to the Christian world a Free, a Full, and a Present Salvation! And may great grace rest upon themselves, and upon all their flocks!
