Matthew Poole's Concise Commentary

Ezekiel 7:8

Shortly; or from a near distance, as well as in a short time, that the flood of my wrath may bear all down before it. Pour out my fury; my wrath shall not be poured out as water from a cloud at mighty distance, but like the breaking out of the sea on the neighbouring villages, which swallows up houses, cattle, and men without remedy. See Ezekiel 5:13, and Ezekiel 7:3.
