Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Ezekiel 4:5

_ _ three hundred and ninety days — The three hundred ninety years of punishment appointed for Israel, and forty for Judah, cannot refer to the siege of Jerusalem. That siege is referred to in Ezekiel 4:1-3, and in a sense restricted to the literal siege, but comprehending the whole train of punishment to be inflicted for their sin; therefore we read here merely of its sore pressure, not of its result. The sum of three hundred ninety and forty years is four hundred thirty, a period famous in the history of the covenant-people, being that of their sojourn in Egypt (Exodus 12:40, Exodus 12:41; Galatians 3:17). The forty alludes to the forty years in the wilderness. Elsewhere (Deuteronomy 28:68; Hosea 9:3), God threatened to bring them back to Egypt, which must mean, not Egypt literally, but a bondage as bad as that one in Egypt. So now God will reduce them to a kind of new Egyptian bondage to the world: Israel, the greater transgressor, for a longer period than Judah (compare Ezekiel 20:35-38). Not the whole of the four hundred thirty years of the Egypt state is appointed to Israel; but this shortened by the forty years of the wilderness sojourn, to imply, that a way is open to their return to life by their having the Egypt state merged into that of the wilderness; that is, by ceasing from idolatry and seeking in their sifting and sore troubles, through God’s covenant, a restoration to righteousness and peace [Fairbairn]. The three hundred ninety, in reference to the sin of Israel, was also literally true, being the years from the setting up of the calves by Jeroboam (1 Kings 12:20-33), that is, from 975 to 583 b.c.: about the year of the Babylonians captivity; and perhaps the forty of Judah refers to that part of Manasseh’s fifty-five years’ reign in which he had not repented, and which, we are expressly told, was the cause of God’s removal of Judah, notwithstanding Josiah’s reformation (1 Kings 21:10-16; 2 Kings 23:26, 2 Kings 23:27).

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Ezekiel 4:5

I have laid — I have pointed out the number of years wherein apostate Israel sinned against me, and I did bear with them. Years — These years probably began at Solomon's falling to idolatry, in the twenty — seventh year of his reign, and ended in the fifth of Zedekiah's captivity.
