12:8 is shewn the captivity of Zedekiah;
12:17 Ezekiel's trembling shews the Jews' desolation;

but is also used for any kind of utensils or instruments whatever; and here probably denotes carriages, or other means for removing goods.

These prophecies, which were accurately fulfilled, are supposed to have been delivered in the sixth year of Zedekiah, five years before the taking of Jerusalem.cover1 Samuel 28:8; 2 Samuel 15:30; Job 24:17 for IEzekiel 12:11, 4:3, 24:24; Isaiah 8:18, 20:2-4ReciprocalJoshua 5:10 - kept the passover; 2 Kings 7:5 - in the twilight; Ezekiel 12:12 - General Verse 7I did soEzekiel 2:8, 24:18, 37:7, 37:10; Jeremiah 32:8-12; Matthew 21:6, 21:7; Mark 14:16; John 2:5-8; 15:14; Acts 26:19 I broughtEzekiel 12:3-6 diggedHeb. digged for meReciprocalJoshua 5:10 - kept the passover; 2 Kings 7:5 - in the twilight Verse 9the rebelliousEzekiel 12:1-3, 2:5-8 What17:12, 20:49, 24:19Reciprocal21:7 - Wherefore; 37:18 - Wilt Verse 10This2 Kings 9:25; Isaiah 13:1, 14:28; Malachi 1:1 princeThat is, Zedekiah king of Judah.

Jeremiah had predicted that his "eyes should see the eyes of the king of Babylon," and here Ezekiel foretold that he should not see Babylon, though he should die there; and Josephus says that he thought the two prophecies so inconsistent with each other, that he believed neither; yet both were exactly fulfilled, and the enigma of Ezekiel explained, when Zedekiah was brought to Nebuchadnezzar at Riblah, where he had his eyes put out, and was then carried to Babylon, and there died.
