Ezekiel 3:25

3:25 As for you, son of man, they will put ropes on you and tie you up with them, so you cannot go out among them.

Ezekiel 4:5

4:5 I have determined that the number of the years of their iniquity are to be the number of days ¹  for you – 390 days. ²  So bear the iniquity of the house of Israel. ³ 

Ezekiel 4:8

4:8 Look here, I will tie you up with ropes, so you cannot turn from one side to the other until you complete the days of your siege. ⁴ 

Ezekiel 36:18

36:18 So I poured my anger on them ⁵  because of the blood they shed on the land and because of the idols with which they defiled it. ⁶ 

¹ tn Heb “I have assigned for you that the years of their iniquity be the number of days.” Num 14:33-34 is an example of the reverse, where the days were converted into years, the number of days spying out the land becoming the number of years of the wilderness wanderings.

² tc The LXX reads “190 days.”

³ tn Or “When you have carried the iniquity of the house of Israel,” and continuing on to the next verse.

¹ sn The action surely refers to a series of daily acts rather than to a continuous period.

¹ sn See Ezek 7:8; 9:8; 14:19; 20:8, 13, 21; 22:22; 30:15.

² sn For the concept of defiling the land in legal literature, see Lev 18:28; Deut 21:23.
