Context of Ezekiel 11:11

9“I will bring you out of the midst of it, give you into the hands of strangers and execute judgments against you. 10You will fall by the sword. I will judge you at the border of Israel. So you will know that I am Adonai. This city will not be your cooking pot nor will you be the meat in the midst of it—I will judge you at Israel’s border. 12So you will know that I am Adonai, whose laws you did not follow and whose ordinances you did not obey. Instead, you have acted in accord with the ordinances of the nations around you.” 13As I prophesied, Pelatiah son of Benaiah dropped dead. I fell upon my face and cried out with a loud voice and said, “Ah, Adonai! Are you going to completely eradicate the remnant of Israel?”

Commentaries on Ezekiel 11:11

• Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 11I will judge you in the border of Israel - Though Riblah was in Syria, yet it was on the very frontiers of Israel; and it was here that Zedekiah's sons were slain, and his own eyes put out.Read the comment
• Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 1-11The Spirit showed Ezekiel God's view of Jerusalem, then let him hear the city's people. The wicked advisors claimed that although the Babylonian attack (the fire) was difficult (hot), the city's defenses (the pot) were strong enough to protect them (the meat). These advisors encouraged people to build houses on stolen land (see Ezekiel 11:15, 17), believing they would be safe. God, however, was determined to judge the wicked.Read the comment
