Ezekiel
Ezekiel 13:8KJV·traditional attribution

Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because ye have spoken vanity, and seen lies, therefore, behold, I am against you, saith the Lord GOD.

John Calvin Reformed

God pronounces Himself their adversary, a sentence the false prophets never expected, since they imagined He either slept or cared nothing for their lies. Your contest is not with men, but with God Himself, the avenger of so wicked a profanation of His name.

AI summary

Matthew Henry Presbyterian

False prophets everywhere, in Jerusalem, in Babylon, speak the same lies, driven by one spirit of error, just as true prophets preach the same truth guided by one good Spirit. Though they are hardened beyond hope of repentance, Ezekiel must testify against them so the people may be warned and they left inexcusable.

Commenting on Ezekiel 13:1-9

John Gill Reformed Baptist

These deceivers seduced the Lord's people by crying peace when no peace was coming, building walls of lies that others plastered over with untempered mortar, loose stones and slushy stuff that would never hold. The false prophets were actuated by one spirit of error, speaking the same lies in concert.
