以西結書 3:25 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 3:25

But thou, O son of man, behold, they shall put bands upon
thee
Or, "bands shall be put upon thee"; either visionally, or really; not by angels, but by the Jews, who, taking the prophet for a madman by his motions and gestures; would bind him, and keep him within doors: or figuratively this may be understood of the sins of the people, their rebellion and obstinacy, which hindered the prophet from prophesying among them as yet; and so this is observed to conciliate his mind to the divine order, to shut up himself for a while in his own house, and be silent: or else by these bonds may be meant the divine order itself, which restrained him from doing his office as yet. So the Targum,

``behold, I have appointed the words of my mouth upon thee, as a band of ropes with which they bind;''
and shall bind thee with them;
which some think is emblematical of the Jews being bound by the Chaldeans: and thou shall not go out among them;
to converse with them, or prophesy unto them. The Septuagint version renders it, "shall not go out from the midst of them"; as if he should be taken out of his own house by the Jews, and be bound by them, and kept among them, and not able to get away from them; but it is to be understood of his being bound in his own house, and not able to go out of that to them; and may signify, that in like manner the Jews should not be able to go out of Jerusalem when besieged by the Chaldeans.

以西結書 3:25 In-Context

23 於 是 我 起 來 往 平 原 去 , 不 料 , 耶 和 華 的 榮 耀 正 如 我 在 迦 巴 魯 河 邊 所 見 的 一 樣 , 停 在 那 裡 , 我 就 俯 伏 於 地 。
24 靈 就 進 入 我 裡 面 , 使 我 站 起 來 。 耶 和 華 對 我 說 : 你 進 房 屋 去 , 將 門 關 上 。
25 人 子 啊 , 人 必 用 繩 索 捆 綁 你 , 你 就 不 能 出 去 在 他 們 中 間 來 往 。
26 我 必 使 你 的 舌 頭 貼 住 上 膛 , 以 致 你 啞 口 , 不 能 作 責 備 他 們 的 人 ; 他 們 原 是 悖 逆 之 家 。
27 但 我 對 你 說 話 的 時 候 , 必 使 你 開 口 , 你 就 要 對 他 們 說 : 主 耶 和 華 如 此 說 。 聽 的 可 以 聽 , 不 聽 的 任 他 不 聽 , 因 為 他 們 是 悖 逆 之 家 。
