Ezekiel 21:2

Eze 21:2 Son of man, set thy face toward Jerusalem, and drop [thy word] toward the holy places, and prophesy against the land of Israel,

Ver. 2. Set thy face. ] See on Ezekiel 20:46 .

And drop thy word. ] See Deu 32:2 Amos 7:16 . As drops of rain follow one upon another, so do words. Speak thick, speak home, though they forbid thee to drop such vinegar or nitre on their galled conscience. Micah 2:6 ; Mic 2:11

Toward the holy places, ] i.e., Against the temple, which they so cried up, Jer 7:4 like so many oyster wives, ad ravim usque.
