Study Lenses

The verse centers on "moreover", "said", "words", "shall", "speak", "thee", "receive", and "thine". It is saying that the verse draws attention to "moreover" and "said", so its meaning should be read from those terms before moving to application.

The nearby context moves from verse 9's "As an adamant harder than flint have..." into verse 11's "And go get thee to them of...", so "moreover" and "said" belong inside that flow. In Ezekiel context, the local focus is covenant, worship, and faithfulness.

A plain takeaway is to answer the verse's own emphasis on "moreover" and "said" with trust shaped by these words, not by a vague optimism outside the passage.
