Ezekiel Chapter 2
서론
Ezekiel 2 Introduction
简体中文
English original
The second and third chapters of Ezekiel contain the direct commission conveyed to Ezekiel in connection with the vision just recorded. The commission was repeated more than once, at what intervals of time we are not told. The communication is from without, the vision and the words are from God.

Ezekiel 2:1
简体中文
人子 - 这片语（在圣经别处也出现）特别应用于被掳时期的先知以西结和但以理。这样，正当以西结特别获准与神接触之时，他便被提醒自己是人。
English original
Son of man - This phrase (which occurs elsewhere in Scripture) is applied especially to Ezekiel and Daniel, the prophets of the captivity. Ezekiel is thus reminded of his humanity, at the time when he is especially permitted to have contact with God.

Ezekiel 2:2
简体中文
灵 - 即「神的灵」。
English original
The spirit - i. e. "the Spirit of God."
3
Ezekiel 2:3
简体中文
国民 - 按字面,如页边所译——这词通常用来把外邦人与神的子民区别开来。在此它表明以色列已被神弃绝;用复数则表示以色列子孙连「一个国民」都不是,而是分散而分裂的。
可译作:「我差你到以色列人,到那悖逆我的国民那里去（他们和他们的列祖违背我,直到今日）,而那些子女是面无羞耻、心里刚硬的;我差你到他们那里去。」
English original
Nation - literally, as in the margin - the word which usually distinguishes the pagan from God's people. Here it expresses that Israel is cast off by God; and the plural is used to denote that the children of Israel are not even "one nation," but scattered and disunited.
Translate: "I send thee to the children of Israel, the rebellious nation that have rebelled against Me (they and their fathers have transgressed against Me, even to this very day), and the children impudent and stiff-hearted: I do send thee unto them."

Ezekiel 2:5
简体中文
悖逆之家 - 这是以西结不断使用的短语，以辛辣的讽刺代替「以色列家」，等于说：「这不再是以色列之家，乃是悖逆之家。」比较 Isaiah 30:9。
English original
A rebellious house - A phrase employed continually by Ezekiel in bitter irony, in the place of house of Israel, as much as to say, "House no longer of Israel, but of rebellion." Compare Isaiah 30:9.

Ezekiel 2:9
简体中文
被差来 - 不如译作「伸出来」。
书卷 - 这书是古代的一种，写在皮上再卷起来；英语的 volume（书卷）一词即由此而来（Psalm 40:7）。书写通常只在一面，但这一卷内外都写、两面有字，仿佛字迹满溢，表明这被交付审判的百姓所要遭受的灾祸何等之多。吃这书卷，意为被其中的内容完全占有（参 Ezekiel 3:10；Jeremiah 15:16）。Ezekiel 2:10 与 Ezekiel 3 之间不应断开。
English original
Was sent - Rather, was put forth.
A roll of a book - The book was one of the ancient kind written on skins rolled up together. Hence, our English volume Psalm 40:7. The writing was usually on one side, but in this case it was written within and without, on both sides, the writing as it were running over, to express the abundance of the calamities in store for the devoted people. To eat the book signifies to be thoroughly possessed with its contents (compare Ezekiel 3:10; Jeremiah 15:16). There should be no break between Ezekiel 2:10 and Ezekiel 3.
以西结书第二、三章所载的，是与刚才记录的异象相关联、传给以西结的直接托付。这托付曾不止一次重复，至于间隔多久，则未告知我们。这传达是从外面临到的；异象和话语都是出于神。
