Geneva Bible Notes (1560): Ezekiel 2

^{1 !} The Prophet is sent to call the people from their errour.

^{1 a} That is, the Lord.

^{1 b} Meaning man which is but earth, & ashes, which was to humble him, & cause him to consider his owne state, & Gods grace.

^{2 c} So that he colde not abide Gods presence til Gods Spirit did enter into him.

^{4 /} Ebr. hard of face.

^{5 d} This declareth on the one parte Gods great affection toward his people, that notwithstanding their rebellion yet he wil send his Prophetes among them & admonish his ministers on the other parte that thei cease not to do their duetie, thogh the people be neuer so abstinat: for the worde of God shal be ether to their saluation of greater condemnation.

^{6 e} Read {Jere. 1, 17}: he sheweth that for none afflictions thei shuld cease to do their dueties.

^{8 f} He doeth not onely exhorte him to his duetie, but also giueth him the meanes where with he may be able to.

^{10 g} He sheweth what were the contents of this boke: to wit, Gods judgements against the wicked.
