Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 24:15-17

The Death of Ezekiel’s Wife. ‘Also the word of Yahweh came to me, saying, “Son of man, behold I am taking from you the desire of your eyes with a stroke. Yet you will neither mourn, nor weep, nor shall your tears run down. Sigh, but not aloud. Make no mourning for the dead. Bind your turban on you, and put your shoes on your feet, and do not cover your lips (moustache), and do not eat the bread of men.” God tells Ezekiel that his wife is about to die and that he is to use it as a sign to... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 24:18

‘So I spoke to the people in the morning, and in the evening my wife died. And I did in the morning as I was commanded.’ Ezekiel was totally obedient. In the morning he spoke to the people as though everything was normal, and when in the evening his wife died, he continued without mourning, so that the people were amazed and recognised that this had some great significance (compare Jeremiah 16:5-13). Note the way the procedure is described so as to indicate that he continued normal life. ‘In... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 24:19

‘And the people said to me, “Will you not tell us what these things are to us that you do?” ’ The people recognised that what he was doing was symbolic. And they asked what message and significance it had for them. read more

‘Then I said to them, “The word of Yahweh came to me saying, Speak to the house of Israel, ‘Thus says the Lord Yahweh, Behold I will profane my sanctuary, the pride of your power, the desire of your eyes, the yearning of your soul, and your sons and your daughters whom you have left behind will fall by the sword, and you will do as I have done, you will not cover your lips nor eat the bread of men, and your headgear shall be on your heads, and your shoes on your feet. You shall not mourn nor... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 24:25-27

Ezekiel Is Once Again To Be Able To Speak Freely Once Jerusalem Is Destroyed. “And you son of man, will it not be that in the day when I take from them their strength, the joy of their glory, the desire of their eyes, and the yearning of their soul, their sons and their daughters, that in that day he who escapes (‘the fugitive’) will come to you to cause you to hear it with your ears. In that day your mouth will be opened to him who has escaped, and you will speak and no more be dumb. So will... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 24:1-14

Ezekiel 24. The Last Message before the Fall of the City. Ezekiel 24:1-2 Chronicles : . The Rusty Caldron.— We now reach the last message delivered by Ezekiel before the fall of the city; and, curiously enough, it was delivered on the opening day of the siege ( 2 Kings 25:1)— an event of which Ezekiel must have known by his gift of second sight. In a probably acted parable, the city is compared to a pot filled with pieces of flesh (=the inhabitants), including choice pieces (= the leaders).... read more

EZEKIEL CHAPTER 24 By the parable of a boiling pot is showed the destruction of Jerusalem, the bloody city, Ezekiel 24:1-14. Ezekiel is forbidden to mourn for the death of his wife, Ezekiel 24:15-18, to denote that this calamity of the Jews shall be beyond all expressions of sorrow, Ezekiel 24:19-24. In that day of affliction the prophet’s mouth shall be opened to their conviction, Ezekiel 24:25-27. read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Ezekiel 24:1

In the ninth year of the captivity of Jeconiah, and those that were carried away with him; it falls in also with the year of Zedekiah’s reign, though the prophet, and the captives now in Babylon, reckon not by this, but by the former. The tenth month; which answers to part of December and January. The tenth day; about our 29th of December, when the winter was well over with them. Came unto me; the prophet was now in Babylon many leagues from Jerusalem. read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Ezekiel 24:2

Write; set it down, and in such manner, with such witness, that it may be proved. The name of the day, most punctually, set it down. The king of Babylon; Nebuchadnezzar, who in person it is like was there at first to encourage, direct, and settle the siege, though he withdrew from it for his delights when he perceived it would be a long siege, as on Ezekiel 11:11, the issue whereof he expected at Antioch on the banks of Orontes. Set himself against; sat down to besiege. read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Ezekiel 24:3

Utter a parable; in somewhat a dark, yet apt similitude, or in an allegory, declare what they should know and consider. Rebellious house: see Ezekiel 2:3,Ezekiel 2:6. Set on a pot; set upon the fire a pot, or caldron. Set it on; do it quickly, be sure to do it: this pot is Jerusalem. Pour water into it; fill it with water; for as the pot full of water on the fire till the water be thoroughly heated, so shall Jerusalem be filled with the judgments of God. read more
