Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Ezekiel 33:7

_ _ I have set thee a watchman — application of the image. Ezekiel’s appointment to be a watchman spiritually is far more solemn, as it is derived from God, not from the people.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Ezekiel 33:1-9.

(c) Which teaches that he that receives not his charge at the Lord's mouth is a spy and not a true watchman.
