Commentary on Ezekiel 34:5

Theological / Devotional

No shepherd. The rulers are blamed for the disaster that had befallen Israel. Their evil example had caused the people to depart from the way of righteousness. This does not mean, of course, that the people were free from sin. No man can be forced to transgress. His own consent must first be gained. It is by his own choice that he follows the evil example of others.
