Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Ezekiel 17:18

_ _ given his hand — in ratification of the oath (2 Kings 10:15; Ezra 10:19), and also in token of subjection to Nebuchadnezzar (1 Chronicles 29:24, Margin; 2 Chronicles 30:8, Margin; Lamentations 5:6).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Ezekiel 17:1-21.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Ezekiel 17:18

Given his hand — Solemnly confirming the oath.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Ezekiel 17:18

Seeing he despised the oath by breaking the covenant, when, lo, he had given (m) his hand, and hath done all these [things], he shall not escape.

(m) Because he took the name of God in vain, and broke his oath which he had confirmed by giving his hand: therefore the prophet declares that God would not permit such perjury and infidelity to escape punishment.
