Ezekiel 2:10 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

He: Ezekiel 2:9 it was the hand, here it is the person, he who held out his hand. Spread it before me; unrolled it within that distance the prophet might read what was written therein. Written within and without; on both sides, on that side which was inward when rolled upon its roundle, and on that side also that was outward, and as it were the back side: a long roll, and full on both sides; so would the sorrows of the Jews be. Lamentations, and mourning, and woe; such things as would make the stoutest heart lament, inwardly grieve; and mourn, express it in visible tokens; and woe, sad thoughts and guesses at worse to come: so this prophet's message would be a most heavy burden to the Jews and other nations against which he prophesied.

Ezekiel 2:10

10 And he spread it before me; and it was written within and without: and there was written therein lamentations, and mourning, and woe.
