Context of Ezekiel 7:10

8Soon now I will pour out my rage on you; I will fully vent my anger against you. I will judge you according to your behavior. I will hold you accountable for all your abominable practices. 9My eye will not pity you; I will not spare you. For your behavior I will hold you accountable, and you will suffer the consequences of your abominable practices. Then you will know that it is I, the Lord, who is striking you. “Look, the day! Look, it is coming! Doom has gone out! The staff has budded, pride has blossomed! 11Violence has grown into a staff that supports wickedness. Not one of them will be left – not from their crowd, not from their wealth, not from their prominence. 12The time has come; the day has struck! The customer should not rejoice, nor the seller mourn; for divine wrath comes against their whole crowd.

Commentaries on Ezekiel 7:10

• Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 10Behold the day - The same words are repeated, sometimes varied, and pressed on the attention with new figures and new circumstances, in order to alarm this infatuated people.

Pride hath budded - Your insolence, obstinacy, and daring opposition to God have brought forth their proper fruits.Read the comment
• Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 7-10Verses 7-10 The morning - Rather, “The conclusion:” a whole series (literally circle) of events is being brought to a close. Others render it: Fate. The day of trouble … - Or, The day is near; a tumult Zechariah 14:13, and not the echo of (or, shouting on) the mountains.
