Yehezkiel 8:11

Yehezkiel 12:2
Konteks12:2 “Son of man, you are living in the midst of a rebellious house. 3 They have eyes to see, but do not see, and ears to hear, but do not hear, 4 because they are a rebellious house.
[8:11] 1 sn Note the contrast between these seventy men who represented Israel and the seventy elders who ate the covenant meal before God, inaugurating the covenant relationship (Exod 24:1, 9).
[8:11] 2 tn The Hebrew word occurs only here in the OT.
[12:2] 3 sn The book of Ezekiel frequently refers to the Israelites as a rebellious house (Ezek 2:5, 6, 8; 3:9, 26-27; 12:2-3, 9, 25; 17:12; 24:3).
[12:2] 4 sn This verse is very similar to Isa 6:9-10.
