Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

Dig thou: Heb. Dig for thee, This was to shew that Zedekiah should escape from the city through a breach in the wall. 2 Kings 25:4, Jeremiah 39:2-4

Reciprocal: Job 24:16 - In the dark Amos 4:3 - ye shall go

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Dig thou through the wall in their sight,.... The wall of the house where he was, as an emblem of the city of Jerusalem closely besieged, from whence there was no escape but by digging through the wall this showed the manner in which Zedekiah made his escape, by the way of the gate, between the two walls which was by the king's garden,

Jeremiah 52:7;

and carry out thereby; not his stuff, as before; but provisions for himself, necessary for his journey or flight; as no doubt Zedekiah and those with him did.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Ezekiel 12:5. Dig thou through the wall — This refers to the manner in which Zedekiah and his family would escape from the city. They escaped by night through a breach in the wall. See Jeremiah 39:2-4; and 2 Kings 25:4.
