The very man Zedekiah, in whom they trust for safety, is to be the chief sufferer. JOSEPHUS [Antiquities, 10.7] reports that Ezekiel sent a copy of this prophecy to Zedekiah. As Jeremiah had sent a letter to the captives at the Chebar, which was the means of calling forth at first the agency of Ezekiel, so it was natural for Ezekiel to send a message to Jerusalem confirming the warnings of Jeremiah. The prince, however, fancying a contradiction between Eze 12:13; "he shall not see Babylon," and Jer 24:8-9, declaring he should be carried to Babylon, believed neither. Seeming discrepancies in Scripture on deeper search prove to be hidden harmonies.

Clarke: Eze 12:10 - -- This burden - This prediction concerning the prince. By this I point out the capture, misery, and ruin of Zedekiah.

Burden - A word used to indicate a prediction of woe to be borne by some individual or people (Isa 13:1 note). Ezekiel, bearing his "stuff"on his shoulder was a sign of the weight of calamity coming upon king and people.

Poole: Eze 12:10 - -- Though they regard not to inquire, yet give them to know what I mean hereby. Thus saith the Lord God: this to add weight and authority to the word...

Though they regard not to inquire, yet give them to know what I mean hereby.

Thus saith the Lord God: this to add weight and authority to the word.

This burden this dreadful prognostic; this prophecy is a burden which the kingdom shall groan under, and your king and the inhabitants of Jerusalem with him.

The prince Zedekiah.

All the house none may be excepted.

Haydock: Eze 12:10 - -- Jerusalem. The people regarded not Jeremias. This prediction would be sent to them to confirm what he said, while it would tend to keep up the spir...

Jerusalem. The people regarded not Jeremias. This prediction would be sent to them to confirm what he said, while it would tend to keep up the spirits of those who were in captivity. (Theodoret) (Calmet) ---

Israel. The people, or those of the ten tribes who had retired thither. (Menochius)

Gill: Eze 12:10 - -- Say thou unto them, thus saith the Lord God,.... In answer to their sneering question; or notwithstanding their stupidity and indolence, and in order ...

Say thou unto them, thus saith the Lord God,.... In answer to their sneering question; or notwithstanding their stupidity and indolence, and in order to awaken them out of it:

this burden concerneth the prince in Jerusalem; the present reigning prince in Jerusalem, King Zedekiah. The sense is, either that that burden of goods the prophet carried out on his shoulders had a regard to the king of Judah and his captivity, and was an emblem of it; or rather that the burden of prophecy, or that sorrowful calamity predicted by the above sign or type, had relation to that prince, and would be fulfilled in him; and so the Targum,

"upon the prince is the burden of this prophecy;''

in like manner Jarchi interprets it of prophecy:

and all the house of Israel which are among them; they were also concerned in it, and would be carried captive with their prince.
