The Inner Meaning of the Prophets and Psalms #134
134. Internal Meaning of Ezekiel, Chapter 11
Doctrine falsified. (2)
1-3 Beginning of the perversion of the church by means of falsities (the caldron here meaning doctrine, and the flesh the people) 2 (2)
4-7 by falsifications of the truth of doctrine. (2)
8-11 It will be even worse, and they will perish by reason of things falsified, (3)
12 because they will pervert all things. (3, 3)
13-16 All who are in falsities must be scattered; the church will consist of few. (3, 11)
17-20 A new church will be instituted by the Lord, which will be in truths from Him, (11)
21 at the time when the former church is being destroyed. (3)
22-23 The Word will enlighten the new church. (11)
24-25 This is made manifest to those who are in spiritual captivity. (11)
Ezekiel 11:13-16
13
It happened, when I prophesied, that Pelatiah the son of Benaiah died. Then fell I down on my face, and cried with a loud voice, and said, Ah Lord Yahweh! will you make a full end of the remnant of Israel?
14
The word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
15
Son of man, your brothers, even your brothers, the men of your relatives, and all the house of Israel, all of them, [are they] to whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, Go far away from Yahweh. This land has been given to us for a possession.
16
Therefore say, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: Whereas I have removed them far off among the nations, and whereas I have scattered them among the countries, yet will I be to them a sanctuary for a little while in the countries where they are come.
