Ezekiel 3:10 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 3:10

Moreover he said unto me, son of man
The same glorious Person as before continued speaking to him, and added, as follows: all my words that I shall speak unto thee;
not only what he had spoken to him, but what he should hereafter; for he did not tell all at once what he should say, but gradually, revealing his mind to him by little and little; but then he was to receive all that he should say, and reject nothing, nor shun to declare the whole counsel of God: receive in thine heart, and hear with thine ears;
what the Lord says should not only be diligently attended to, and heard with eagerness, but should be received, in the love of it, into the heart, and laid, up in the mind and memory, in order to be delivered out to others at a proper time.
