以西结书 12:16 CUVS

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Ezekiel 12:1-28

Ezekiel's Vision Ezekiel 12:0 Ezekiel will speak nothing in his own name. He does not guarantee one word of what he speaks by his own authority. The wondrous imagery is not the birth of his fancy, it is something which his soul's eyes have seen. Ezekiel makes no sermons, he simply tells what he has heard. It was his business to deliver messages, not to make them. When he is incoherent, he makes no apology; when we cannot follow him, he cannot help it; when he is apparently mad, he does not... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Ezekiel 12:1-16

It is very proper for the Reader to remark what the Lord so often repeats to his servant the Prophet concerning his people, that they are a rebellious house. For this consideration will help the Reader to make a double improvement of the subject; first, of their unworthiness; and secondly, of the divine mercy, and long sufferings, manifested towards them. What, but covenant faithfulness in Jehovah, could have held out against such hardened wickedness? And what but Jesus's person, blood, and... read more

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 12:1-16

1-16 By the preparation for removal, and his breaking through the wall of his house at evening, as one desirous to escape from the enemy, the prophet signified the conduct and fate of Zedekiah. When God has delivered us, we must glorify him and edify others, by acknowledging our sins. Those who by afflictions are brought to this, are made to know that God is the Lord, and may help to bring others to know him. read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Ezekiel 12:1-16

The Sign of the Kings Departue v. 1. The word of the Lord also came unto me, saying, v. 2. Son of man, thou dwellest in the midst of a rebellious house, literally, "in the midst of a house of rebelliousness art thou living," which have eyes to see and see not; they have ears to hear and hear not, thus proving themselves to be deliberately perverse and willfully obstinate; for they are a rebellious house. v. 3. Therefore, thou son of man, prepare thee stuff for removing, an exile's outfit,... read more

2. The Signs (Ezekiel 12:1-20)1. The Sign of the King’s Departure (Ezekiel 12:1-16)1And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying, 2Son of man, thou dwellest in the midst of the house of rebelliousness, who have eyes to see, and they see not; and they have ears to hear, and they hear not: for they are an house of 3rebelliousness. And thou, son of man, make thee [therefore make thee, thou son of man] baggage of the emigrant, and remove by day before their eyes. And thou shalt remove from thy... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Ezekiel 12:1-28

The prophet was next commanded to act in the sight of the people as an exile going forth from his country, preparing "stuff for removing," and carrying it forth from place to place. He obeyed the command, and its intention was fulfilled when the people inquired what he meant. In response, he foretold the capture of the people and the princes in Jerusalem, and their being taken to Babylon, declaring that the prince (Zedekiah) would be taken captive to Babylon, but that he would not see it.... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 12:14-16

“And I will scatter towards every wind all who are round about him to help him, and all his bands, and I will draw out the sword after them. And they will know that I am Yahweh, when I will disperse them among the nations and scatter them through the countries. But I will leave a few men of them from the sword, from the famine and from pestilence, that they may declare all their abominations among the nations where they go, and they will know that I am Yahweh.” Those of Zedekiah’s supporters... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 12:1-16

Ezekiel 12. Exile Foreshadowed. Ezekiel 12:1-Nehemiah : . Flight from the Beleaguered City.— Ezekiel’ s message of doom has surely been made plain enough, but the “ rebellious house” will not listen; for one thing, their confidence in the indestructibility of the monarchy and the throne made such a message incredible. Well then, if they will not hear, they must be made to see; and again, as before (4) Ezekiel incarnates his message. By his conduct, he becomes a prophetic “ sign.” In the... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Ezekiel 12:16

But I will restrain the rage of the Chaldeans, and move them to some compassion towards some of the Jews, so that some, yet but few, shall remain; the sword shall not slay them, for 1 commission it, and it will not exceed its commission. I send the famine, but some I will feed; and the pestilence is my arrow, and hits but where I direct it. A few men; including the women also. That they may declare; either by relating those sins which were committed among them in Jerusalem, for which God was... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Ezekiel 12:1-16

2. FULLER DETAILS RELATING TO THE SINS OF THE PEOPLE AND THEIR PUNISHMENT (Chaps. 12–19)Intercourse with their countrymen in Jerusalem deeply affected the views and hopes of the exiled Jews, as the feelings and expectations in British colonies are affected by the discussions and decisions in the mother-country. The kingdom of Judah still maintained its existence, notwithstanding the prophetic threatenings of Jeremiah. That gave apparent denial to his dismal prediction, and a bold, defiant... read more
