Ezekiel 3:11 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 3:11

And go, get thee to them of the captivity
Not in the times of Hoshea king of Israel, by Shalmaneser king of Assyria, for these were placed in the cities of the Medes, ( 2 Kings 17:6 ) ; but in the times of Jeconiah king of Judah, ( Ezekiel 1:2 ) ; unto the children of thy people;
the Jews, which were in the land of Chaldea: and speak unto them, and tell them:
the words the Lord spoke to him: thus saith the Lord God; whether they will hear, or whether they will
forbear: (See Gill on Ezekiel 2:5).

Ezekiel 3:11 In-Context

9 I've made your forehead like a diamond, harder than stone. Don't be afraid of them or shrink away from them, because they are a household of rebels.
10 He said to me: Human one, listen closely, and take to heart every word I say to you.
11 Then go to the exiles, to your people's children. Whether they listen or not, speak to them and say: The LORD God proclaims!
12 Then a wind lifted me up, and I heard behind me a great quaking sound from his place. Blessed is the LORD's glory!
13 The sound was the creatures' wings beating against each other and the sound of the wheels beside them; it was a great rumbling noise.
