Ezekiel 4:17

That they may want bread and water ,.... Or, "because they shall want" F12 למען "eo quod", Munster, Vatablus; "propterea", Tigurine version. &c.; therefore they shall eat the one, and drink the other, by weight; or they shall do this till there shall be none to eat and drink:

and be astonished one with another ; when they shall find they cannot relieve one another; and not knowing what method to take for the support of nature:

and consume away for their iniquity ; their flesh upon them black through famine, putrid and noisome; and they wasting, pining, and consuming; reduced to skin and bones; and disagreeable to look upon; and all because of their sins and iniquities.
