SEV Biblia, Chapter 13:10
¶ Por tanto, y por cuanto engañaron a mi pueblo, diciendo: Paz, no habiendo paz; y uno edificaba la pared, y he aquí que los otros la pañetaban con lodo suelto;
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 13:10
Verse 10. One built up a wall] A true prophet is as a wall of defense to the people. These false prophets pretend to be a wall of defense; but their wall is bad, and their mortar is worse. One gives a lying vision, another pledges himself that it is true; and the people believe what they say, and trust not in God, nor turn from their sins. The city is about to be besieged; it needs stronger fortifications than what it possesses. The prophet should be as a brazen wall for its defense; and such my prophets would have been had the people received the word from my mouth. But ye have prevented this by your lying vanities; and when you have perverted the people, you pretend to raise up a rampart of specious prophecy, full of fine promises, for their defense. What one false prophet says, another confirms; and this is like daubing over a bad wall with bad mortar, which prevents its blemishes and weaknesses being discovered, though it has no tendency to strengthen the building.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Heavy judgments against lying prophets. (Ezek. 13:1-9) The insufficiency of their work. (Ezek. 13:10-16) Woes against fals prophetesses. (Ezek. 13:17-23) Ezek. 13:1-9 Where God gives a warrant to do any thing, he give wisdom. What they delivered was not what they had seen or heard, a that is which the ministers of Christ deliver. They were not prayin prophets, had no intercourse with Heaven; they contrived how to pleas people, not how to do them good; they stood not against sin. The flattered people into vain hopes. Such widen the breach, by causing me to think themselves deserving of eternal life, when the wrath of God abides upon them.
Ezek. 13:10-16 One false prophet built the wall, set up the notion tha Jerusalem should be victorious, and made himself acceptable by it Others made the matter yet more plausible and promising; they daube the wall which the first had built; but they would, ere long, be undeceived when their work was beaten down by the storm of God's jus wrath; when the Chaldean army desolated the land. Hopes of peace an happiness, not warranted by the word of God, will cheat men; like wall well daubed, but ill built.
Ezek. 13:17-23 It is ill with those who had rather hear pleasing lie than unpleasing truths. The false prophetesses tried to make people secure, signified by laying them at ease, and to make them proud signified by the finery laid on their heads. They shall be confounde in their attempts, and God's people shall be delivered out of their hands. It behoves Christians to keep close to the word of God, and in every thing to seek the teaching of the Holy Spirit. Let us so trus the promises of God as to keep his commandments __________________________________________________________________
