29 Then shall they know that I am the Lord, when I have laid the land most desolate because of all their abominations which they have committed.
29 Then they will know that I am the Lord, when I have made the land a desolate waste because of all the detestable things they have done.'
29 Then they will know that I am the Lord, when I have made the land a desolation and a waste because of all their abominations that they have committed.
29 "They'll realize that I am God when I devastate the country because of all the obscenities they've practiced.
29 Then they shall know that I am the Lord, when I have made the land most desolate because of all their abominations which they have committed." '
29 When I have completely destroyed the land because of their detestable sins, then they will know that I am the Lord .'
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Ezekiel 33:29
Commentary on Ezekiel 33:21-29
(Read Ezekiel 33:21-29)
Those are unteachable indeed, who do not learn their dependence upon God, when all creature-comforts fail. Many claim an interest in the peculiar blessings to true believers, while their conduct proves them enemies of God. They call this groundless presumption strong faith, when God's testimony declares them entitled to his threatenings, and nothing else.
