Ezequiel 2

Ezequiel 2:6
Are there not revilings in Ezekiel directed against the people, when the Lord says, "you dwell among scorpions"? — AGAINST CELSUS 2:76
Ezequiel 2:10
I take it to be similar in the case of the book mentioned by Ezekiel, in which had been written lamentation, mourning and woe. The whole book contains the "woe" of those perishing, and the "mourning" of those being saved and the "lamentation" of those in between. John, too, who eats one roll on which there is writing on the back and the front, considered the whole Scripture as one book, which is thought to be sweet at the start, when one chews it, but bitter in the perception of each of those who come to know it. — COMMENTARY ON THE GOSPEL OF JOHN 5:7
