Ezekiel 4:11 - Albert Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

Water by measure - This probably corresponds to the water of affliction 1 Kings 22:27; Isaiah 30:20. The measure of the hin is variously estimated by Jewish writers. The sixth part of a hin will be according to one estimate about 610ths, according to another 910ths of a pint. The lesser estimate is more suitable here.

Ezekiel 4:11

11 Thou shalt drink also water by measure, the sixth part of an hin: from time to time shalt thou drink.
