Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Ezekiel 36:23

_ _ sanctify — vindicate and manifest as holy, in opposition to the heathen reproaches of it brought on by the Jews’ sins and their punishment (see on Ezekiel 36:20).

_ _ sanctified in you — that is, in respect of you; I shall be regarded in their eyes as the Holy One, and righteous in My dealings towards you (Ezekiel 20:41; Ezekiel 28:22).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Ezekiel 36:16-24.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Ezekiel 36:23

I will sanctify my great name — They gave the heathen occasion to think meanly of me, but I will shew I am as great as good. When God performs what he hath sworn by his holiness, then he sanctifies his name.
