Ezekiel - 19:2 Meaning
“And say, What is thy mother? A lioness: she lay down among lions, she nourished her whelps among young lions.”
King James Version (KJV)
Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary
19:1-9 Ezekiel is to compare the kingdom of Judah to a lioness. He must compare the kings of Judah to a lion's whelps; they were cruel and oppressive to their own subjects. The righteousness of God is to be acknowledged, when those who have terrified and enslaved others, are themselves terrified and enslaved. When professors of religion form connexions with ungodly persons, their children usually grow up following after the maxims and fashions of a wicked world. Advancement to authority discovers the ambition and selfishness of men's hearts; and those who spend their lives in mischief, generally end them by violence.
“And he answered, Fear not: for they that be with us are more than they that be with them.”
