Eze 12:2
12:2 Son of man, thou dwellest in the midst of a rebellious
     house, who have eyes to see, and see {a} not; they have
     ears to hear, and hear not: for they [are] a rebellious
     house.

     (a) That is, they receive not the fruit of that which they
         see and hear.

Eze 12:6
12:6 In their sight shalt thou bear [it] upon [thy] shoulders,
     [and] carry [it] forth in the twilight: thou shalt cover
     thy face, that thou mayest not see the ground: for I have
     set thee [for] a {b} sign to the house of Israel.

     (b) That as you do, so shall they do, and therefore in you
         they will see their own plague and punishment.

Eze 12:9
12:9 Son of man, hath not the house of Israel, the rebellious
     house, said to thee, What {c} doest thou?

     (c) Do they not deride your doings?

Eze 12:13
12:13 My net also will I spread upon {d} him, and he shall be
      taken in my snare: and I will bring him to Babylon [to]
      the land of the Chaldeans; yet shall he not see it, though
      he shall die there.

      (d) When the king will think to escape by fleeing, I will
          take him into my net, as in @Eze 32:3.

Eze 12:16
12:16 But I will leave a {e} few men of them from the sword,
      from the famine, and from the pestilence; that they may
      declare all their abominations among the nations where
      they come; and they shall know that I [am] the LORD.

      (e) Who would bear his Name, and would be his Church.

Eze 12:22
12:22 Son of man, what [is] that proverb [that] ye have in the
      land of Israel, saying, The days {f} are prolonged, and
      every vision faileth?

      (f) Because they did not immediately see the prophecies
          accomplished, they contemned them as though they would
          never be fulfilled.

Eze 12:27
12:27 Son of man, behold, [they of] the house of Israel say, The
      vision that he seeth [is] for {g} many days [to come], and
      he prophesieth of the times [that are] distant.

      (g) That is, it will not come to pass in our days, and
          therefore we care not for it: thus the wicked ever
          abuse God's patience and benignity.
