Ezekiel 12:12 Douay-Rheims

And the prince that is in the midst of them, shall be carried on shoulders, he shall go forth in the dark: they shall dig through the wall to bring him out: his face shall be covered, that he may not see the ground with his eyes.

Jamieson, Fausset & Brown

1871 Reformed

prince . . . among them--literally, "that is in the midst of them," that is, on whom the eyes of all are cast, and "under whose shadow" they hope to live (Lam 4:20). shall bear--namely, his "stuff for removing"; his equipments for his journey. cover his face, that he see not the ground--See on Eze 12:6; the symbol in Eze 12:6 is explained in this verse. He shall muffle his face so as not to be recognized: a humiliation for a king!
