Ezekiel 2:6 - Coke's Commentary on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

And thou—be not afraid of them— The prophets and messengers of God are often exhorted to take courage, and are promised a proportionable assistance in discharge of their office, without fearing any man's person, or standing in awe of any man's greatness. The expressions in this verse perfectly characterise a wicked people, who, having shaken off all restraint of religion and laws, will hear no reason, nor attend to the remonstrances of those who would instruct them in better sentiments.

Ezekiel 2:6

6 And thou, son of man, be not afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words, though briersc and thorns be with thee, and thou dost dwell among scorpions: be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they be a rebellious house.
