Scripture focus

And thou, son of man, be not afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns [be] with thee, and thou dost dwell among scorpions: be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they [be] a rebellious house.

Commentary

Commentary on Ezekiel 2:6

Theological / Devotional

Be not afraid. Ezekiel’s opposition would come from rulers, priests, and pretended prophets. They would ridicule, misrepresent, accuse, and threaten the prophet, but through it all he was to avoid giving way to their attempts to intimidate him and to the discouraging fears that beset him on every side.

Briers. Used metaphorically of the opposition the prophet would encounter from those to whom he was sent.
