Speak.
every feathered fowl.
Heb. the fowl of every wing.
to my.
sacrifice.
or, slaughter.
 A similar call is made in Revelation 19:17-18, but there only to all the birds that fly in mid-heaven. It is in view of the carnage which is to befall the armies of the west at the end of this age; and I suppose only the birds are named as in keeping with the judgment of the apostates from the heavenly testimony of Christianity. Here it is larger, as His dealings take effect on the countless eastern hordes, who have not only despised the gospel but seek to possess themselves of the land when His earthly people are being settled there in peace. (Notes on Ezekiel 39:17-29 by W. Kelly)
