Commentary

This verse is part of a significant prophecy in Ezekiel, where God promises the restoration of Israel, who were in exile due to their sin and idolatry. The context is God's declaration of what He will do for His people, not based on their merit, but for the sake of His holy name, which had been profaned among the nations.

The verse highlights a crucial aspect of God's promised restoration: a comprehensive salvation. First, He addresses the spiritual condition: "I will also save you from all your uncleannesses." This refers to the spiritual and moral impurity that separated them from God and led to their judgment. It speaks to God's initiative in cleansing His people from sin and idolatry (Ezekiel 36:25).

Second, God promises physical blessing and provision: "and I will call for the corn, and will increase it, and lay no famine upon you." "Corn" (or grain) represents the basic sustenance and agricultural prosperity of the land. Famine was a common consequence of divine judgment and a major hardship of exile. God promises to reverse this, ensuring abundance and security, removing the threat of hunger. This shows that God's restoration is not just spiritual but also involves bringing physical well-being and provision for His people.

The promise links spiritual cleansing with physical blessing, demonstrating God's desire for the holistic well-being of His people. He saves them from sin and its consequences, including the harsh realities of famine and lack, providing both spiritual purity and material abundance.
