Hesekiel 11:4 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 11:4

Therefore prophesy against them
Evil things against them, things that are disagreeable to them; since they flatter themselves with good things, and cry peace and safety, let them know that destruction is coming upon them: or, "concerning them" F6; what will befall them, and that it will be otherwise with them than they imagine: prophesy, O son of man;
this is repeated, not only to stir up the prophet to the performance of his work and office, not fearing the faces, and revilings, and mockings of men; but to show the indignation of the Lord at their scoffs and jeers, and the certain accomplishment of what should be predicted.

Hesekiel 11:4 In-Context

2 Und er sprach zu mir: Menschensohn, das sind die Männer, welche Unheil sinnen und bösen Rat erteilen in dieser Stadt, die da sprechen:
3 Es ist nicht an der Zeit, Häuser zu bauen; sie ist der Topf, und wir sind das Fleisch.
4 Darum weissage wider sie; weissage, Menschensohn! -
5 Und der Geist Jehovas fiel auf mich und sprach zu mir: Sprich: So spricht Jehova: Also sprechet ihr, Haus Israel; und was in eurem Geiste aufsteigt, das weiß ich.
6 Ihr habt eurer Erschlagenen viele gemacht in dieser Stadt und ihre Straßen mit Erschlagenen gefüllt.
