Ezek. 7:2 The address to the land (literally, “soil”) of Israel uses a phrase unique to Ezekiel (found 17 times in the book, always referring to the people Israel). Compare “the mountains of Israel,” 6:2. The announcement of an end (also 7:3, 6) echoes Amos 8:2, where God announces the coming outpouring of his wrath.
Ezek. 7:3 Abominations are offenses that God despises, that make someone or something impure. The term appears 41 times in Ezekiel.
Ezek. 7:10 Behold, the day! The “day of the Lord” is a prominent theme in the Hebrew prophets (see note on Amos 5:18–20). It refers to near or future judgment of the Lord on Israel and the nations (see Joel 2:1–11). This judgment also reveals God’s glory and restores his people. Ezekiel’s development of the theme relates most closely to Amos 8:9–10. Among the many concepts shared by Ezekiel 7 and Amos 8 are the “day” itself, violence and wealth, agricultural metaphors, foiled commerce, desecration of holy things, and withholding of divine direction.
Ezek. 7:12–13 The transactions described here connect with the laws of Lev. 25:26–27. There is no opportunity to redeem property because death will come first.
Ezek. 7:17 all knees turn to water. The Hebrew suggests a loss of bladder control due to panic.
Ezek. 7:26 Loss of divine direction from the prophet, priest, and elders provides another link to Jeremiah, where the sinful Judeans assume that such guidance will always be available to them (Jer. 18:18).
