In the Hebrew context, "morning" often symbolizes new beginnings, revelation, and clarity. It is a time when darkness gives way to light, suggesting that God’s message is meant to bring understanding and insight. The morning is also a time of renewal and hope, reflecting God’s desire to guide His people out of spiritual darkness.<p><b>the word of the LORD</b><br />This phrase emphasizes the divine origin of the message. In Hebrew, "word" (דָּבָר, davar) signifies not just spoken words but also actions and events. The "word of the LORD" is powerful and creative, as seen in Genesis where God speaks creation into existence. It underscores the authority and reliability of the message Ezekiel receives, reminding us that God’s words are not mere suggestions but commands that shape reality.<p><b>came to me, saying</b><br />This indicates a direct and personal communication from God to Ezekiel. The phrase "came to me" suggests an intentional and purposeful delivery of God’s message. It highlights the role of the prophet as a chosen vessel through whom God speaks. The word "saying" implies that what follows is not just for Ezekiel’s understanding but is meant to be conveyed to others, reinforcing the prophet’s duty to share God’s revelations with His people.<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/ellicott/ezekiel/12.htm">Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers</a></div>(8) <span class= "bld">In the morning.</span>--This implies that the foregoing symbolical action was actually performed, since the Divine message comes in answer to the inquiry of the people (<a href="/ezekiel/12-9.htm" title="Son of man, has not the house of Israel, the rebellious house, said to you, What do you?">Ezekiel 12:9</a>), "What doest thou?"<p><div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/ezekiel/12.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div><span class="cmt_sub_title">Verses 8, 9.</span> - The commands were obeyed, and the prophet waited fur the next inspiration, the next <span class="cmt_word">word of the Lord.</span> It would seem as if he had himself done what he was told to do without knowing what it meant.
