In animabus nostris afferebamus panem nobis, a facie gladii in deserto.
et faciam in te, quae non feci et quibus similia ultra non faciam, propter omnes abominationes tuas.
Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
that which: Lamentations 4:6, Lamentations 4:9, Daniel 9:12, Amos 3:2, Matthew 24:21, The sentence here passed upon Jerusalem is very dreadful, and the manner of expression makes it yet more so: the judgments are various, the threatenings of them varied, reiterated; so that one may well say, Who is able to stand in God's sight when he is angry?
Reciprocal: Ezekiel 7:5 - General
Gill's Notes on the Bible
And I will do in thee that which I have not done,.... In any other nation, or to any other people; not in the old world, when the flood was brought upon the world of the ungodly; not in Sodom and Gomorrah, when they were destroyed by fire from heaven; not in Egypt, when he inflicted his plagues on Pharaoh and his people; nor among the Canaanites, when they were drove out of their land for their abominations:
and whereunto I will not do any more the like; at least not of a long time; and, besides, this may not only refer to the siege of Jerusalem by the Chaldeans, but also by the Romans:

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Compare Matthew 24:21. The calamities of the Babylonian were surpassed by the Roman siege, and these again were but a foreshadowing of still more terrible destruction at the last day.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Ezekiel 5:9. I will do in thee that which I have not done — The destruction of Jerusalem by Nebuchadnezzar was one of the greatest calamities that ever fell on any nation or place before; and that by the Romans under Titus exceeded all that has taken place since. These two sackages of that city have no parallel in the history of mankind.
