Wesley's Notes for Ezekiel 7:25

7:23 A chain - To bind the captives.

7:24 The pomp - The magnificence and glory, wherein they boasted; or the temple that the Jews gloried in.

7:26 Seek - But in vain. The priest - He shall have no words either of counsel or comfort to say to them. Ancients - Nor shall their senators know what to advise.

7:27 The king - Zedekiah. The prince - Every magistrate. Troubled - Hang down, and melt away. What can men contrive or do for themselves, when God is departed from them? All must needs be in tears, all in trouble, when God comes to judge them according to their deserts, and so make them know, that he is the Lord, to whom vengeance belongeth.
