Ezekiel 17:20

_ _ my net — (Ezekiel 12:13; Ezekiel 32:3). God entraps him as he had tried to entrap others (Psalms 7:15). This was spoken at least upwards of three years before the fall of Jerusalem (compare Ezekiel 8:1, with Ezekiel 20:1).

_ _ plead with him — by judgments on him (Ezekiel 20:36).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Ezekiel 17:1-21.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Ezekiel 17:20

Plead — I will punish him.
