       Some men will listen to no warning voice except the warning voice of death.  They learn at last what, had they learnt before, would have been their salvation.  But now to them the lesson is useless; it serves only to admonish others.

      Crowds of men are practical infidels all through life, although they profess to believe in a reigning God; but death scatters the clouds of unbelief, and is a startling revelation of the invisible world. 

      Amid the excitements and the turmoil of life they would not reflect, nor ponder, nor decide.  They preferred to remain in the haze of doubt.  At no point would they brace up their moral energy to say, “I know.”  Yet there comes an hour when faith, and righteousness, and God, and judgment will be real.  Then shall they know.”

The Pulpit Commentary, Ezekiel II p. 200, Ezekiel 33:21-29, (J. D. Davies)
