Ezequiel 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 ) .

Ezequiel 4:10 In-Context

8 Y he aquí he puesto sobre ti cuerdas, y no te tornarás del un tu lado al otro lado, hasta que hayas cumplido los días de tu cerco.
9 Y tú toma para ti trigo, y cebada, y habas, y lentejas, y mijo, y avena, y ponlo en una vasija, y hazte pan de ello el número de los días que durmieres sobre tu lado: trescientos y noventa días comerás de él.
10 Y la comida que has de comer será por peso de veinte siclos al día: de tiempo á tiempo lo comerás.
11 Y beberás el agua por medida, la sexta parte de un hin: de tiempo á tiempo beberás.
12 Y comerás pan de cebada cocido debajo de la ceniza; y lo cocerás á vista de ellos con los estiércoles que salen del hombre.
