Contextual Overview
1 Then came the word of Yahweh unto me saying: 2 Son of man. In the midst of a perverse house, dost thou dwell, - Who have eyes to see - and have not seen. Ears have they to hear - and have no heard, For a perverse house, they are. 3 Thou, therefore Son of man, Prepare thee baggage for exe, and exe thyself, by day, before their eyes, - so shalt thou exe thyself out of thy place unto another place before their eyes, peradventure they will consider - though a perverse house, they are. 4 Therefore shalt thou take forth thy baggage as baggage for exe, by day before their eyes, - and thou thyself, shalt go forth in the evening, before their eyes, like them who go forth to exe. 5 Before their eyes, break thou forth by thyself through the wall, - and carry forth through it. 6 Before their eyes, Upon the shoulder, shalt thou lift it. In thick darkness, take it forth, Thy face, shalt thou cover so that thou see not the land; For a sign, have I appointed thee to the house of Israel. 7 And I did so, just as I was commanded, My baggage, took I forth as baggage for exe by day, and in the evening, I brake forth by myself through the wall, by force: in the twilight, I took it forth - on to my shoulder, I lifted it, before their eyes. 8 Then came the word of Yahweh unto me in the morning, saying: 9 Son of man, Have not the house of Israel the perverse house, said unto thee, - What art thou doing? 10 Say unto them, Thus, saith My Lord, Yahweh, - For the Bearer, is this burden, in Jerusalem, and for all the house of Israel such as are in their midst.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Son of man, hath not the house of Israel, the rebellious house,
said unto thee,.... The Jews that were in captivity; for with these the prophet was, and before their eyes he had done the above things; and they only could put the following question to him, who were "the rebellious house"; Ezekiel 12:2;
what dost thou? this they put not seriously, as desirous of being informed what was meant by all this; but as deriding the prophet for acting such a weak and silly part: this the Lord knew they had done, and therefore directs the prophet to make a proper answer; though some think the sense is, "hath not the house of Israel said unto thee, what dost thou?" no, they have not; they take no notice of it; never say one word about it, or inquire into the meaning of it; quite careless, thoughtless, and stupid; wherefore, though they will not ask anything concerning it, yet begin with them, and show them the design of it.
