Ezekiel 4:10 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 4:10

And thy meat which thou shall eat [shall be] by weight, twenty
shekels a day
To eat bread by weight was a sign of a grievous famine; see ( Leviticus 26:26 ) ; a shekel, according to Josephus F9, weighed four Attic drachms, or half an ounce, wherefore twenty shekels weighed ten ounces; so that the bread the prophet had to eat was but ten ounces a day: from time to time shall thou eat it;
at the certain time of eating, or but once a day; from a set time in one day to the same in another; as from morning to morning, or from noon to noon, or from evening to evening; see ( Jeremiah 37:21 ) .

8 Et voici, je mettrai des cordes sur toi, afin que tu ne puisses pas te tourner d'un côté sur l'autre, jusqu'à ce que tu aies accompli les jours de ton siège.
9 Prends du froment, de l'orge, des fèves, des lentilles, du millet et de l'épeautre, mets-les dans un vase, et fais-en du pain autant de jours que tu seras couché sur le côté; tu en mangeras pendant trois cent quatre-vingt-dix jours.
10 La nourriture que tu mangeras sera du poids de vingt sicles par jour; tu en mangeras de temps Ă  autre.
11 L'eau que tu boiras aura la mesure d'un sixième de hin; tu boiras de temps à autre.
12 Tu mangeras des gâteaux d'orge, que tu feras cuire en leur présence avec des excréments humains.
