“It is sharpened to make a sore slaughter; it is furbished that it may glitter: should we then make mirth? it contemneth the rod of my son, as every tree. it contemneth: or, it is the rod of my son, it despiseth every tree”
Ezekiel 21:10 (KJV)
Commentary on Ezekiel 21:10
"It is sharpened to make a sore slaughter; it is furbished that it may glitter: should we then make mirth? it contemneth the rod of my son, as every tree." The sword's purpose is explicit—"sore slaughter" (tevach tebach, טֶבַח טָבַח), emphatic intensification meaning massive killing. "Should we then make mirth?" (o nasis, אוֹ נָשִׂישׂ) suggests some were celebrating despite warnings—tragic denial of imminent danger. The obscure phrase about "rod of my son" likely refers to Judah's scepter (Genesis 49:10) being despised—royal authority rejected, making judgment inevitable.
