Ezekiel 39:14

"Yes, all the people of the land will bury them; and they will become famous in the day that I will be glorified,” says the Lord GOD."

Key Reflection

This verse suggests that after a significant judgment or event, the people will honor those who have died by burying them properly. This act of burial and subsequent remembrance will serve as a sign of God's glory and the importance of His judgment, highlighting both the accountability of the wicked and the acknowledgment of divine power in the hearts of the survivors.

From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

Men of continual employment -literally, as margin, i. e., men regularly appointed to this business. As the land of Israel represents figuratively the Church of Christ, the purification of that land is a proper part of the figure to indicate such a sanctification and cleansing of His Church, as Paul describesEphesians 5:26-27.
