unto the house of Israel
Ezekiel 3:4
3:4 unto the house of Israel. Although Ezekiel’s warnings were directed especially to the tribes of Judah and Benjamin (while many were still in the land, before the final deportation and the destruction of the temple), it was really applicable to the entire nation of Israel, whether in Babylon or Assyria or still in their homeland. See also Ezekiel 3:7,17.
