Ezechiël 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.

Ezechiël 11:4 In-Context

2 En Hij zeide tot mij: Mensenkind, deze zijn de mannen, die ongerechtigheid bedenken, en die kwaden raad raden in deze stad.
3 Die zeggen: Men moet geen huizen nabij bouwen; deze stad zou de pot, en wij het vlees zijn.
4 Daarom profeteer tegen hen; profeteer, o mensenkind!
5 Zo viel dan de Geest des HEEREN op mij, en Hij zeide tot mij: Zeg: Zo zegt de HEERE: Alzo zegt gijlieden o huis Israels! want Ik weet elkeen der dingen, die in uw geest opklimmen.
6 Gij hebt uw verslagenen in deze stad vermenigvuldigd, en gij hebt derzelver straten met de verslagenen vervuld.
