The Key Word — חִנָּ֤ם, chi.Namgenerated
The word חִנָּם (chi.Nam) is an adverb meaning 'for nothing' or 'without cause.' It implies actions taken without a reason or purpose, indicating that God's actions were not arbitrary but had a significant reason behind them.
This word emphasizes the gravity of God's decisions and the importance of understanding the context of His actions. In this verse, it underscores that the calamities were not without purpose, reinforcing the idea that God's judgments are deliberate and meaningful.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against. The BSB has without cause, and so do the ASV, KJV, and others.
Where others part company with the BSB is over the rendering of חִנָּ֤ם: for nothing (BBE, LSV) and in vain (ULB) reflect a different nuance than the BSB's emphasis on purpose.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The verse is structured around several clauses, with the main action being expressed through the verbs נִחֲמ֣וּ (they will comfort), תִרְא֥וּ (you will see), and וִֽידַעְתֶּ֗ם (and you will know). Each verb introduces a new aspect of the survivors' impact on the exiles' understanding.
The word order emphasizes the actions of the survivors as central to the comfort and knowledge that God intends to provide, illustrating a clear cause-and-effect relationship between their conduct and the reassurance offered by God.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates חִנָּ֤ם as μάτην (mátēn), which carries the meaning of 'in vain.' This choice suggests a broader interpretation of the concept of purposelessness, highlighting that God's actions were not without significant reason.
This rendering indicates a slight shift in focus from the specific idea of 'without cause' to a more general sense of actions being ineffective or fruitless, which can deepen the understanding of God's judgments.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Ezekiel 14:23 assures the exiles that they will find comfort when they see the actions of the survivors. They will understand that God's judgments were not without purpose. This verse highlights the connection between the survivors' conduct and God's intentions, emphasizing that His actions are deliberate and meaningful.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
It means that the actions of the survivors will provide comfort and understanding to those in exile, helping them to see the purpose behind the calamities.
God wants to assure the exiles that there is a significant reason behind the judgments, reinforcing that His decisions are intentional and not arbitrary.
The conduct of the survivors serves as a reflection of God's mercy and purpose, demonstrating that even in judgment, there is hope and a plan for restoration.

CambridgeThe Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges12–23. The presence of righteous men among a sinful people will not save the sinners The passage may be in answer to thoughts which the prophet felt might rise in the minds of those to whom he spoke. He threatened destruction to people and prophets alike, a destruction indiscriminate and universal. Were not these threats exaggeration? Were they in harmony with God’s former ways of dealing with his people? Would he slay the righteous with the wicked? would he not rather spare the wicked on the intercession of the righteous and for their sake, as often in former times? (Genesis 18:23; Numbers 14:15). To this the prophet replies after Jeremiah 15 that righteous men among the people shall not…

kum'-fert (nacham; parakaleo): The New Testament word is variously translated, as "comfort," "exhort," "beseech," the exact translation to be determined by the context. Etymologically, it is "to call alongside of," i.e. to summon for assistance. To comfort is to cheer and encourage. It has a positive force wanting in its synonym "console," as it indicates the dispelling of grief by the impartation of strength. the Revised Version (British and American) has correctly changed the translation of paramutheomai from the King James Version "comfort," to "consolation." So in the Old Testament, "Comfort ye my people" (Isa 40:1) is much stronger than "console," which affords only the power of calm endurance of affliction, while the brightest hopes of the future and the highest incentives to present activity are the gifts of the Divine grace…

ov:
(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.
OF, preposition ov. [Gr.]
1. From or out of; proceeding from, as the cause, source, means, author or agent bestowing.
I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered to you. 1 Corinthians 11:1.
For it was of the Lord to harden their hearts. Joshua 11:1.
It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed.

The whole disposing thereof is of the Lord. Proverbs 16:1.
Go, inquire of the Lord for me. 2 Chronicles 34:2.
That holy thing that shall be born of thee. Luke 1:1.
Hence of is the sign of the genitive case, the case that denotes production; as the son of man, the son proceeding from man, produced from man. This is the primary sense, although we now say, produced by man. 'Part of these were slain; ' that is, a number separate, for part denotes a division; the sense then is, a number from or out of the whole were slain. So also, 'some of these were slain; ' that is…
אֲדֹנָי (Adonay) means 'Lord' and is an emphatic form of another Hebrew word for lord. It is used specifically as a title for God, often in place of Yahweh to show reverence. Variations include אֲדֹנִי and אֲדֹנַי, which help distinguish divine from human references.

Lord
There are various Hebrew and Greek words so rendered.
(1.) Heb. Jehovah, has been rendered in the English Bible LORD, printed in small capitals. This is the proper name of the God of the Hebrews. The form “Jehovah” is retained only in Ex. 6:3; Ps. 83:18; Isa. 12:2; 26:4, both in the Authorized and the Revised Version.
(2.) Heb. ‘adon, means one possessed of absolute control. It denotes a master, as of slaves (Gen. 24:14, 27), or a ruler of his subjects (45:8), or a husband, as lord of his wife (18:12).
The old plural form of this Hebrew word is ’adonai. From a superstitious reverence for the name “Jehovah,” the Jews, in reading their Scriptures, whenever that name…
[GOD]
This name belongs to God by preeminence; and in this sense ought never to be given to any creature. Jesus Christ, as the Messiah, the Son of God, and equal with the Father, is often called Lord in Scripture, especially in the writing of Paul. The word LORD, in the English Bible, when printed in small capitals, stands always for JEHOVAH in the Hebrew. See JEHOVAH.
יְהֹוִה (Yhovih) is a variation of the name יָהְוֶה (Yahweh), which is the proper name of the God of Israel. It is often used in combination with other terms, such as 'Lord Jehovah.' The name is significant in the context of the Old Testament, particularly in Exodus 3:12-15, where it is revealed to Moses.
יהוה c. 6823 i.e. יַהְוֶה n.pr.dei Yahweh, the proper name of the God of Israel—(1. MT יְהֹוָה 6518 (Qr אֲדֹנָי), or יֱהֹוִה 305 (Qr אֱלֹהִים) 2. Many recent scholars explain יַהְוֶה as Hiph. of הוה (= היה) the one bringing into being, life-giver)
יהוה is not used by E in Gn, but is given Ex 3:12-15 as the name of the God who revealed Himself to Moses at Horeb
יהוה is used with אלהים and suffixes, especially in D
the phrase † אֲנִי יהוה is noteworthy
יהוה is also used with several predicates, to form sacred names of holy places of Yahweh
