Matthew Poole's Concise Commentary

Ezekiel 35:8

His mountains; there they will fortify, or thither they will flee, and there the enemy shall take and slay his men every where, as it follows in the words; slaughter shall be made of his men, pursued by the eager Chaldean, but more by the vengeance of God. So this phrase Ezekiel 30:11, but explained Ezekiel 32:5.
