Adam Clarke Bible Commentary

Ezekiel 37:22

Verse Ezekiel 37:22. I will make them one nation] There was no distinction after the return from Babylon.

And one king shall be king to them all] Politically speaking they never had a king from that day to this; and the grand junction and government spoken of here must refer to another time - to that in which they shall be brought into the Christian Church with the fulness of the Gentiles; when JESUS, the King of kings and Lord of lords, shall rule over all.
