Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Ezekiel 3:14

_ _ bitterness — sadness on account of the impending calamities of which I was required to be the unwelcome messenger. But the “hand,” or powerful impulse of Jehovah, urged me forward.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Ezekiel 3:1-15.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Ezekiel 3:14

Spirit — Caught him up into the air. Took — Carried me to the place where the captive Jews were crowded together. Bitterness — Not at all pleased with my work. He went in the heat of his spirit; because of the discouragements he foresaw he should meet with. But the hand of the Lord was strong upon him, not only to compel him to the work, but to fit him for it.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Ezekiel 3:14

So the spirit lifted me up, and took me away, and I (e) went in bitterness, in the heat of my spirit; but the hand of the LORD was strong upon me.

(e) This shows that there is always an infirmity of the flesh which can never be ready to render full obedience to God, and also God's grace who ever assists his, and overcomes their rebellious affections.
