ezekiel 12:6 In their sight shalt thou bear it upon thy shoulders, and carry it forth in the twilight: thou shalt cover thy face, that thou see not the ground: for I have set thee for a sign unto the house of Israel.

ezekiel 12:6 "Load [the baggage] on [your] shoulder in their sight, [and] carry [it] out in the dark. You shall cover your face so that you can not see the land, for I have set you as a sign to the house of Israel."

6. in . . . twilight--rather, "in the dark." So in Ge 15:17, "it" refers to "thy stuff."
cover thy face--as one who muffles his face, afraid of being recognized by anyone meeting him. So the Jews and Zedekiah should make their exit stealthily and afraid to look around, so hurried should be their fight [CALVIN].
sign--rather, "a portent," namely, for evil.

ezekiel 12:6 "Load [the baggage] on [your] shoulder in their sight, [and] carry [it] out in the dark. You shall cover your face so that you can not see the land, for I have set you as a sign to the house of Israel."
