Contextual Overview
1 And He said to me, Son of man, eat what you find. Eat this roll, and go speak to the house of Israel. 2 So I opened my mouth, and He made me eat that roll. 3 And He said to me, Son of man, make your belly eat, and fill your bowels with the roll, this that I give to you. And I ate, and it was in my mouth like honey for sweetness. 4 And He said to me, Son of man, Go! Come to the house of Israel and speak with My Words to them. 5 For you are not sent to a people of deep lip and difficult of language, but to the house of Israel; 6 not to many peoples of deep lip and of a difficult language, whose words you cannot hear. If I had sent you to them, they would have listened to you. 7 But the house of Israel is not willing to listen to you, for they are not willing to listen to Me, for all the house of Israel are strong of forehead and hard of heart. 8 Behold, I have made your face strong over against their faces, and your forehead strong over against their foreheads. 9 I have made your forehead as an adamant harder than flint. Do not fear them, and do not be frightened by their faces, though they are a house of rebellion. 10 And He said to me, Son of man, all My Words which I speak to you, receive into your heart, and hear with your ears.
