Ezequiel 12:23 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 12:23

Tell them therefore
Plainly and boldly, with the greatest assurance and confidence, as from God himself: thus saith the Lord God, I will make this proverb to cease;
by quickly accomplishing the things which they, by this proverb, represented as at a great distance, and what would never be brought about: and they shall no more use it as a proverb in Israel;
when the things predicted shall take place: but say unto them, the days are at hand, and the effect of every
vision;
the time is hastening on, and will quickly come, when every prophecy shall be fulfilled: it was in the sixth year of Jehoiachin's captivity that these prophecies were delivered out; and in the ninth year Nebuchadnezzar came with his army, and besieged Jerusalem; so that the days were at hand; in three years' time there began an accomplishment of the above predictions, which were scoffed at in the proverb used.

Ezequiel 12:23 In-Context

21 Y vino a mí la palabra del SEÑOR, diciendo:
22 Hijo de hombre, ¿qué proverbio es ése que vosotros tenéis acerca de la tierra de Israel, que dice: "Se alargan los días y desaparece toda visión"?
23 Por tanto, diles: "Así dice el Señor DIOS: 'Haré cesar este proverbio para que ya no lo usen como proverbio en Israel.' Diles, pues: 'Se acercan los días y el cumplimiento de toda visión.
24 'Porque ya no habrá ninguna visión falsa ni adivinación lisonjera en medio de la casa de Israel.
25 'Porque yo, el SEÑOR, hablaré, y toda palabra que diga se cumplirá. No se demorará más, sino que en vuestros días, oh casa rebelde, hablaré la palabra y la cumplirédeclara el Señor DIOS.'"
