Commentaries
4:1-8 The prophet was to represent the siege of Jerusalem by signs. He was to lie on his left side for a number of days, supposed to be equal to the years from the establishment of idolatry. All that the prophet sets before the children of his people, about the destruction of Jerusalem, is to show that sin is the provoking cause of the ruin of that once flourishing city.

8. bands—(Eze 3:25).

not turn from … side—to imply the impossibility of their being able to shake off the punishment.

Ezekiel 4:7
