Expositor's Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 2:1-10

EZEKIEL’S PROPHETIC COMMISSIONEzekiel 2:1-10; Ezekiel 3:1-27THE call of a prophet and the vision of God which sometimes accompanied it are the two sides of one complex experience. The man who has truly seen God necessarily has a message to men. Not only are his spiritual perceptions quickened and all the powers of his being stirred to the highest activity, but there is laid on his conscience the burden of a sacred duty and a lifelong vocation to the service of God and man. The true prophet... read more

Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - Ezekiel 2:1-8

Ezekiel 2:1-8 . We see Ezekiel prostrate upon his face. Then a voice spoke, not the voice of a cherubim; while in Revelation the cherubim speak, in Ezekiel they are silent, Jehovah addressed Ezekiel as son of man; the title which is found exactly one hundred times in this book. Daniel only besides Ezekiel is called by this name. Our Lord called Himself by that name and used it in connection with His suffering, exaltation, glory, and coming again. Ezekiel, too, passed through much suffering,... read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 2:1-10

HIS CALL AND PREPARATION Ezekiel was carried to Babylon with King Jehoiachin, as we gather by comparing Ezekiel 1:1 ; Ezekiel 33:21 ; Ezekiel 40:1 with 2 Kings 24:11-16 ; and lived with the exiles on the river Chebar probably at Tel-abib (Ezekiel 1:1 ; Ezekiel 1:3 ; Ezekiel 3:15 ). Unlike Jeremiah, he was married and had a stated residence (Ezekiel 8:1 ; Ezekiel 24:1 ; Ezekiel 24:18 ). His ministry began in the fifth year of Jehoiachin’s captivity, and seven before the capture of Jerusalem... read more

Joseph Parker

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Ezekiel 2:1-10

Ezekiel's Commission Ezekiel 2:0 , Ezekiel 3:0 From beginning to end the Book of Ezekiel may be regarded as a series of divine visions, or one vision presented in many varying aspects. The second and third chapters, which give an account of Ezekiel's call to his office, ought to be read through as one chapter. We are to understand that although Ezekiel changed from place to place, yet the vision was substantially the same. The prophet is constantly receiving fresh instructions, but the... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Ezekiel 2:3-5

Observe the characters to whom the Prophet is sent. The house of Israel. So the Lord Jesus declared. Matthew 15:24 . But then observe, Israel included the whole Church of Christ. Nor so the Holy Ghost, in after ages, taught by Paul. If ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise, Galatians 3:29 . And so God the Father before had declared: Isaiah 49:6 ; John 17:2 . Observe farther, the character of Israel, stiff-necked, rebellious, impudent children. But still... read more

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 2:1-5

1-5 Lest Ezekiel should be lifted up with the abundance of the revelations, he is put in mind that still he is a son of man, a weak, mortal creature. As Christ usually called himself the Son of man, it was also an honourable distinction. Ezekiel's posture showed reverence, but his standing up would be a posture of greater readiness and fitness for business. God will speak to us, when we stand ready to do what he commands us. As Ezekiel had not strength of his own, the Spirit entered into him.... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Ezekiel 2:1-10

The Commission of Ezekiel to Be the Lord's Prophet. The Lord, having revealed Himself to His servant in the fullness of His divine power and majesty, now issued to him the formal call, extended to him the formal commission to be His prophet to the rebellious Jews. v. 1. And He said unto me, Son of man, the name reminding him of the frailty of the human race, but also of the fact that the Lord here addressed him as a man speaks to his friends, stand upon thy feet, and I will speak unto thee.... read more

The Divine Commission to the Prophet (Ezekiel 2:1 to Ezekiel 3:11)Ezekiel 2:1 And He said unto me, Son of man, stand upon thy feet, and I will speak with thee. 2And the spirit entered into me as He spake unto me, and set me upon my feet, and I heard Him that spake unto me. 3And He said unto me, Son of man, I send thee to the sons of Israel, to heathens, the rebels, who rebelled against me. They and their fathers have been revolters from me down to this 4very day. And the sons! stiff of face... read more
