Jer neće više biti u domu Izrailjevom zaludne utvare ni gatanja kojim se laska.
The Inner Meaning of the Prophets and Psalms #135
135. Internal Meaning of Ezekiel, Chapter 12
Vastation of the church, and fulfillment of the prophecy. (3)
1-2 They are opposed to the Lord and the Word. (3)
3-12 It is represented that the church has departed from them, through the falsification of the Word in respect to the sense of the letter, until there is no longer any church. (3)
13 They have destroyed the chief truths by reasonings from the natural man, (3)
14-16 and consequently the remaining truths, so that there is little left. (3)
17-20 It is not known what good and truth are. (3)
21-25 The Coming of the Lord will not be delayed. (1)
26-28 It is vain for them to say that the prophecies of the Word concerning the Lord will be fulfilled after a long time. (2, 1)
Ezekiel 12:3-12
3
Therefore, you son of man, prepare your stuff for moving, and move by day in their sight; and you shall move from your place to another place in their sight: it may be they will consider, though they are a rebellious house.
4
You shall bring forth your stuff by day in their sight, as stuff for moving; and you shall go forth yourself at even in their sight, as when men go forth into exile.
5
Dig through the wall in their sight, and carry your stuff out that way.
6
In their sight you shall bear it on your shoulder, and carry it forth in the dark; you shall cover your face, so that you don't see the land: for I have set you for a sign to the house of Israel.
7
I did so as I was commanded: I brought forth my stuff by day, as stuff for removing, and in the even I dug through the wall with my hand; I brought it forth in the dark, and bore it on my shoulder in their sight.
8
In the morning came the word of Yahweh to me, saying,
9
Son of man, has not the house of Israel, the rebellious house, said to you, What are you doing?
10
Say to them, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: This burden [concerns] the prince in Jerusalem, and all the house of Israel among whom they are.
11
Say, I am your sign: like as I have done, so shall it be done to them; they shall go into exile, into captivity.
12
The prince who is among them shall bear on his shoulder in the dark, and shall go forth: they shall dig through the wall to carry out thereby: he shall cover his face, because he shall not see the land with his eyes.
