Ez 4, 1-17

1 “And as for you, son of man, take up for yourself a tablet, and you shall set it before you. And you shall draw upon it the city of Jerusalem. 2 And you shall set up a blockade against it, and you shall build fortifications, and you shall put together a rampart, and you shall encamp opposite it, and you shall place battering rams around it. 3 And you shall take up for yourself an iron frying pan, and place it as an iron wall between you and the city. And harden your face against it, and it shall be under a siege, and you shall surround it. This is a sign to the house of Israel. 4 And you shall sleep on your left side. And you shall place the iniquities of the house of Israel on it by the number of days that you will sleep on it. And you shall take upon yourself their iniquity. 5 For I have given to you the years of their iniquity, by the number of the days: three hundred and ninety days. And you shall bear the iniquity of the house of Israel. 6 And when you will have completed this, you shall sleep a second time, on your right side, and you shall assume the iniquity of the house of Judah for forty days: one day for each year; one day, I say, for each year, have I given to you. 7 And you shall turn your face toward the siege of Jerusalem, and your arm shall be extended. And you shall prophesy against it. 8 Behold, I have surrounded you with chains. And you shall not turn yourself from one side to the other side, until you have completed the days of your siege. 9 And you shall take for yourself wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentils, and millet, and vetch. And you shall set them in one vessel, and you shall make for yourself bread by the number of days that you will sleep upon your side: three hundred and ninety days shall you shall eat from it. 10 But your food, which you will eat, shall be in weight twenty staters a day. You shall eat it from time to time. 11 And you shall drink water by measure, one sixth part of a hin. You shall drink it from time to time. 12 And you shall eat it like barley bread baked under ashes. And you shall cover it, in their sight, with the dung that goes out of a man.” 13 And the Lord said: “So shall the sons of Israel eat their bread, polluted among the Gentiles, to whom I will cast them out.” 14 And I said: “Alas, alas, alas, O Lord God! Behold, my soul has not been polluted, and from my infancy even until now, I have not eaten anything that has died of itself, nor that which has been torn up by beasts, and no unclean flesh at all has entered into my mouth.” 15 And he said to me: “Behold, I have given to you cow manure in place of human dung, and you shall make your bread with it.” 16 And he said to me: “Son of man, behold: I will crush the staff of bread in Jerusalem. And they will eat bread by weight and with anxiety. And they will drink water by measure and with anguish. 17 So then, when bread and water fail, each one may fall against his brother. And they shall waste away in their iniquities.”

Ez 4, 1-17





Verš 16
And he said to me: “Son of man, behold: I will crush the staff of bread in Jerusalem. And they will eat bread by weight and with anxiety. And they will drink water by measure and with anguish.
Lv 26:26 - After this, I will have broken the staff of your bread, so that ten women bake bread in one oven, and distribute it by weight. And you shall eat and not be filled.
Iz 3:1 - For behold, the sovereign Lord of hosts will take away, from Jerusalem and from Judah, the powerful and the strong: all the strength from bread, and all the strength from water;
Ez 5:16 - I, the Lord, have spoken. At that time, I will send among them the most grievous arrows of famine, which shall bring death, and which I will send so that I may destroy you. And I will gather a famine over you, and I will crush the staff of bread among you.
Ez 14:13 - “Son of man, when a land will have sinned against me, so that it transgresses grievously, I will extend my hand over it, and I will crush the staff of its bread. And I will send a famine upon it, and I will destroy from it both man and beast.

Verš 2
And you shall set up a blockade against it, and you shall build fortifications, and you shall put together a rampart, and you shall encamp opposite it, and you shall place battering rams around it.
2Kr 25:1 - Then it happened that, in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, on the tenth day of the month, Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, he and his entire army, arrived against Jerusalem. And they encircled it, and they constructed fortifications all around it.

Verš 5
For I have given to you the years of their iniquity, by the number of the days: three hundred and ninety days. And you shall bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.
Nm 14:34 - According to the number of the forty days, during which you examined the land, one year shall be charged for each day. And so, for forty years you shall take back your iniquities, and you shall know my retribution.

Verš 13
And the Lord said: “So shall the sons of Israel eat their bread, polluted among the Gentiles, to whom I will cast them out.”
Oz 9:3 - They will not dwell in the land of the Lord. Ephraim has been returned to Egypt, and he has eaten polluted things among the Assyrians.

Ez 4,1 - V Babylone písali na mäkké tehly alebo hlinené tabuľky, ktoré potom dali usušiť, aby písmo bolo trváce. Na takúto tehlu mal Ezechiel načrtnúť obliehanie Jeruzalema.

Ez 4,2 - Útočné barany boli brvná, ktorými búrali múry opevnených miest.

Ez 4,3 - Ezechiel predstavuje Boha; železná misa, ktorú mal postaviť medzi mesto a seba, zvýrazňuje, že medzi Bohom a národom je železný múr, ktorý postavil národ svojimi hriechmi (porov. Iz 59,2).

Ez 4,4-8 - Ďalším náznakovým úkonom mal Ezechiel predpovedať, ako dlho bude trvať zajatie pre severné, Izraelské kráľovstvo a pre južné, Júdske. Ležaním na ľavom boku naznačoval prorok, ako dlho bude trvať trest zajatia Severnej ríše. Každý deň ležania značil rok trestu. Trest tejto ríše mal trvať 390 alebo podľa LXX len 190 rokov. Na pravej strane ležal prorok len 40 dní, trest Júdu mal podľa toho trvať 40 rokov. 40 je symbolické číslo pre dni utrpenia, napr. 40 dní potopy alebo 40 rokov exodu. Teda udanie rokov u Ezechiela je len približné a zaokrúhlené.

Ez 4,9-17 - Pokrmom a nápojom, ktorý má pri svojich náznakových úkonoch požívať, bude prorok zvýrazňovať biedu národa pri obliehaní mesta a v zajatí. Izraeliti mali zakázané siať na jednu roľu miešané zrno (Lv 19,19; porov. Dt 22,9–11). Isteže mali aj zakázané pripravovať chlieb z miešanej múky. Ezechiel mal primiešať aj múku zo strukovín, z ktorých sa chlieb nepekával. Počas obliehania a zajatia (LXX aj tu číta 190) bude taká bieda, že sa nebudú prizerať, aký chlieb jedia. No ani takého chleba nebude nadostač. 20 šeklov je 327 g. 1/6 hinu, asi 1 liter vody, je v Palestíne málo, tam pre horúčavy spotrebuje telo viac vody. Osúch upečený pod popolom z uschnutého ľudského výkalu bol naozaj odporný. Ezechiel bol kňazom, preto sa zhrozil každej rituálnej nečistoty. – Keď Pán vidí, aký je prorok zronený, zmierni svoj príkaz a dovoľuje mu osúch piecť na ohni zo suchého hovädzieho trusu. – Kým obliehaní majú chlieb, vydržia, pokrm im je oporou. Ale Boh v Jeruzaleme zlomil túto oporu (doslovne: "palicu") chleba, v meste bude neslýchaný hlad a smäd; porov. Jer 19,9; Nár 1,11.19; 2,11.12.20; 4,3 n.; 5,4.9.
