Ezequiel 3:9

Listen to Ezequiel 3:9
9 Como diamante, más fuerte que pedernal he hecho tu frente; no les temas, ni tengas miedo delante de ellos, porque es casa rebelde

Ezequiel 3:9 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 3:9

As an adamant harder than flint have I made thy forehead
Or, "than a rock" F15; the "adamant" has its name in Greek, because it cannot be conquered or subdued, neither by the hammer, nor by fire; the one cannot break, nor this other consume it; land it is called "shamir" in Hebrew, from its preserving itself from both; it will cut iron in pieces, which is harder than stone, and therefore must be harder than that. Bochart takes it to be the same with "smiris", a hard stone, which jewellers use to polish their gems with; see ( Jeremiah 17:1 ) ( Zechariah 7:12 ) . The design of the simile is to set forth the courage and fortitude of mind the prophet was endowed with, in order to face an impudent and hardhearted people; fear them not, neither be dismayed at their looks, though they [be] a
rebellious house; (See Gill on Ezekiel 2:6).

Ezequiel 3:9 In-Context

7 Mas los de la Casa de Israel no te querrán oír, porque no me quieren oír a mí; porque toda la Casa de Israel son fuertes de frente, y duros de corazón
8 He aquĂ­ he hecho yo tu rostro fuerte contra los rostros de ellos, y tu frente fuerte contra su frente
9 Como diamante, más fuerte que pedernal he hecho tu frente; no les temas, ni tengas miedo delante de ellos, porque es casa rebelde
10 Y me dijo: Hijo de hombre, toma en tu corazón todas mis palabras que yo te hablaré, y oye con tus oídos
11 Y ve, y entra a los cautivos, a los hijos de tu pueblo, y les hablarás y les dirás: Así dijo el Señor DIOS; no oirán, ni cesarán
