Commentary on Ezekiel 7:10

HENRY_FULL · Ezekiel 7:10
I. That it shall be enlarged and great additions made to it, to join in the service of God, ver. 3-8 . III. That the new converts shall be greatly serviceable to the church and to the interests of it, ver. 9-13 . IV. That the church shall be in great honour and reputation among men, ver. 14-16 . V. That it shall enjoy a profound peace and tranquility, ver. 17, 18 . VI. That, the members of it being all righteous, the glory and joy of it shall be everlasting, ver. 19-22 .

The Extension of the Church. ( b. c. 706.) 1 Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee. 2 For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the Lord shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee. 3 And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising. 4 Lift up thine eyes round about, and see: all they gather themselves together, they come to thee: thy sons shall come from far, and thy daughters shall be nursed at thy
