Ezekiel 47:14 — Meaning and Application

And by the river upon the bank thereof, on this side and on that side, shall grow all trees for meat, whose leaf shall not fade, neither shall the fruit thereof be consumed: it shall bring forth new fruit according to his months, because their waters they issued out of the sanctuary: and the fruit thereof shall be for meat, and the leaf thereof for medicine. {shall grow: Heb. shall come up} {new: or, principal} {for medicine: or, for bruises and sores}

Thus saith the Lord GOD; This {shall be} the border, whereby ye shall inherit the land according to the twelve tribes of Israel: Joseph {shall have two} portions.

And ye shall inherit it, one as well as another: {concerning} the which I lifted up mine hand to give it unto your fathers: and this land shall fall unto you for inheritance. {lifted...: or, swore}

And this {shall be} the border of the land toward the north side, from the great sea, the way of Hethlon, as men go to Zedad;

Hamath, Berothah, Sibraim, which {is} between the border of Damascus and the border of Hamath; Hazarhatticon, which {is} by the coast of Hauran. {Hazarhatticon: or, the middle village}
