bullet Rashi's Commentary, c. 1075. chabad.org.
bulletFrom the Geneva Notes.
bullet"This declares on the one part God's great affection toward his people, that despite their rebellion, yet he will send his prophets among them, and admonishes his ministers on the other part that they cease not to do their duty, though the people are never so obstinate: for the word of God will be either to their salvation or greater condemnation."
bulletFrom Matthew Henry's Commentary.
bullet"Ezekiel is sent with a message to the children of Israel. Many might treat his message with contempt, yet they should know by the event that a prophet had been sent to them. God will be glorified, and his word made honourable, whether it be a savour of life unto life, or of death unto death."
bulletFrom Wesley's Notes.
bullet"Son of man - A phrase which is ninety - five times, at least, used in this prophecy to keep him humble who had such great revelations."

bullet "Preaching to Deaf Ears," Margaret B. Hess, The Christian Century, 1997. At Religion Online.
bullet"God promises Samuel that his words will never fall to the ground, but Ezekiel is not given that advantage. For Ezekiel, the faithfulness lies in the telling. He is not to measure the effectiveness of his preaching by the response of the people. The heart of his ability to preach with integrity and authenticity lies in his ability to take the word of God inside himself, and to root his proclamation in the word as it transforms him, Ezekiel, from the inside out. Do we dare to take preaching seriously enough to allow ourselves to be changed by the word we ingest?"
