Ezekiel 3:2 - Forerunner Commentary

Ezekiel 3:2

1 Moreover He said to me, “Son of man, eat what you find; ^aeat this scroll, and go, speak to the house of Israel.”

2 So I opened my mouth, and He caused me to eat that scroll.

3 And He said to me, “Son of man, feed your belly, and fill your stomach with this scroll that I give you.” So I ^aate, and it was in my mouth ^blike honey in sweetness.

4 Then He said to me: “Son of man, go to the house of Israel and speak with My words to them.

5 For you are not sent to a people of unfamiliar speech and of hard language, but to the house of Israel,

6 not to many people of unfamiliar speech and of hard language, whose words you cannot understand. Surely, ^ahad I sent you to them, they would have listened to you.
