Contextual Overview
1 Moreouer the word of the Lorde came vnto me, saying, 2 Also thou sonne of man, thus saith the Lord God, An ende is come vnto the lande of Israel: the ende is come vpon the foure corners of the lande. 3 Nowe is the ende come vpon thee, and I wil sende my wrath vpon thee, and will iudge thee according to thy wayes, and will laye vpon thee all thine abominations. 4 Neither shall mine eye spare thee, neither will I haue pitie: but I will laye thy waies vpon thee: and thine abomination shall bee in the middes of thee, and yee shall knowe that I am the Lorde. 5 Thus saith the Lorde God, Beholde, one euil, euen one euill is come. 6 An ende is come, the end is come, it watched for thee: beholde, it is come. 7 The morning is come vnto thee, yt dwellest in the lande: the time is come, the day of trouble is neere, and not the sounding againe of the mountaines. 8 Now I will shortly powre out my wrath vpon thee, and fulfil mine anger vpon thee: I will iudge thee according to thy wayes, and will lay vpon thee all thine abominations. 9 Neither shall mine eie spare thee, neither will I haue pitie, but I will laye vpon thee according to thy wayes, and thine abominations shalbe in the middes of thee, and ye shall knowe that I am the Lorde that smiteth. 10 Beholde, the day, beholde, it is come: the morning is gone forth, the rod florisheth: pride hath budded.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Thus saith the Lord God,.... Here should be a stop, a colon, requiring attention to what follows, it being something awful and terrible:
an evil, an only evil, behold, it cometh; meaning the destruction of the city and temple; which, though but one, was such an one as was never known before nor was there any like it. The Targum is,
"evil after evil, lo, it cometh;''
one evil after another; when one evil is gone, another comes, as in Ezekiel 7:26. The Syriac version is, "behold, evil for evil comes"; the evil of punishment for the evil of sin.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
An only evil - An evil singular and remarkable above all others.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Ezekiel 7:5. An evil, an only evil — The great, the sovereign, the last exterminating evil, is come: the sword, the pestilence, the famine, and the captivity. Many MSS. read אחר achar, after. So evil cometh after evil; one instantly succeeds another.
