Commentary on Ezekiel 39:14

Theological / Devotional

Men of continual employment. Literally, “men of continuance,” men appointed to this business to stay by the task until it was completed. The work was to be systematically performed.

With the passengers. The Hebrew preposition ’eth, here translated “with,” may also be the sign of the direct object, making the passage read, “passing through the land to bury the passengers, those that remain.” The LXX and the Syriac have no word corresponding to “passengers,” and simply read, “to bury those that remain.”
