1 Thou sonne of man prophecie vnto the mountaines of Israel, and speake, heare the worde of the lord O ye mountaines of Israel. 2 Thus saith the Lord God: Because your enemie hath saide vpon you aha, the hie places of the worlde are now become ours in possession: 3 Prophecie therefore and speake, thus saith the Lorde God: For because that they haue made you desolate, and swalowed you vp on euery side, that ye might be a possession vnto the residue of the gentiles, and ye are taken vp in the lippes and tongues of men, and to the reproche of the people: 4 Therefore heare the worde of the Lorde God, O ye mountaines of Israel, thus saith the Lorde God to the mountaines and hils, to the riuers and valleys, to the waste and desolate places, and to the cities that are forsaken, which are spoyled and had in derision on euery side, among the residue of the heathen: 5 Therefore thus saith the Lorde God: Surely in the fire of my gelousie haue I spoken against the residue of the gentiles, and against all Edom, which haue appoynted my lande for their possession, which also reioyced from their whole heart with a dispitefull stomake, to cast it out for a pray. 6 Prophecie therefore vpon the lande of Israel, and speake vnto the mountaines and hils, to the riuers and dales, thus saith the Lorde God: Behold, this haue I spoken in my gelousie and terrible wrath, because ye haue borne the shame of the heathen: 7 Therefore thus saith the Lorde God, I haue lyft vp my hande, surely the heathen that are about you, shall beare their shame. 8 But you, O mountaynes of Israel, ye shall shoote out your braunches, and bring foorth your fruite to my people of Israel: for they are at hande to come. 9 Beholde I come vnto you, and vnto you wyll I turne my face, that ye may be tilled and sowen. 10 I wyll multiplie men vpon you, [euen] al the house of Israel wholly, the cities shalbe inhabited, and the decayed places shalbe repaired againe.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Also, thou son of man, prophesy unto the mountains of Israel,.... The land of Judah, which was very mountainous, at least one part of it, called the hill country, Luke 1:39 and now the country being cleared of men through the captivity, and other desolating judgments, there were none but bare mountains to speak unto: or, "prophesy concerning the mountains of Israel" d; the inhabitants of them, or those that should be restored to them, concerning their future happiness and comfort: some render it, "against the mountains of Israel" e; but the later prophecies of them are in their favour, and not against them:

and say, ye mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord; concerning the destruction of their enemies, and concerning the temporal blessings that should be bestowed on them.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The “mountains of Israel” are opposed to “Seir,” the mount of Edom Ezekiel 35:3.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

CHAPTER XXXVI

The Edomites or Idumeans, during the Babylonish captivity, took

possession of the mountainous parts of Judea, and the

fortresses which commanded the country, intending to exclude

the Jews if ever they should return from their captivity. The

prophet therefore, by a beautiful personification, addresses

the mountains of Israel; and, ascribing to them passions and

emotions similar to those of his own breast, consoles them with

the prospect of being soon rid of those usurping foes; of being

freed from the dishonour of idols under which they groaned; and

of flourishing again in their ancient glory under their

rightful owners, 1-15.

The idolatry and other sins of the Jews are then declared to be

the cause of their captivity and dispersion, 16-20;

from which however they are promised a deliverance in terms of

great force and beauty, 21-38.

This chapter contains also, under the type of the happy

condition of the Israelites after their restoration from the

Babylonish captivity, a glorious prophecy of the rich blessings

of the Gospel dispensation.

NOTES ON CHAP. XXXVI

Verse Ezekiel 36:1. Prophesy unto the mountains of Israel — This is a part of the preceding prophecy though it chiefly concerns the Jews. In it they are encouraged to expect a glorious restoration; and that none of the evil wishes of their adversaries should take place against them.
