ezekiel 7:11 'Violence has grown into a rod of wickedness. None of them [shall remain], none of their multitude, none of their wealth, nor anything eminent among them.

< Ezekiel 7:10
Ezekiel 7:12 >

      11. Violence (that is, the violent foe) is risen up as a rod of (that is, to punish the Jews') wickedness (Zec 5:8).
      theirs--their possessions, or all that belongs to them, whether children or goods. GROTIUS translates from a different Hebrew root, "their nobles," literally, "their tumultuous trains" (Margin) which usually escorted the nobles. Thus "nobles" will form a contrast to the general "multitude."
      neither . . . wailing-- (Jer 16:4-7; 25:33). GESENIUS translates, "nor shall there be left any beauty among them." English Version is supported by the old Jewish interpreters. So general shall be the slaughter, none shall be left to mourn the dead.
