Rzekł tedy Pan tak: Takci synowie izraelscy swój chleb jeść będą splugawiony miedzy narody, do których je wypędzę.
I rzekł Pan: Tak będą jeść synowie Izraelscy chleb swój plugawy dla pogan, których tam zgromadzę.
W ten sposób - zakończył PAN - żywić się będą synowie Izraela wśród narodów, między którymi ich rozproszę. Będą jedli pokarm nieczysty!
I WIEKUISTY powiedział: W ten sposób, pomiędzy narodami, dokąd ich zapędzę, przyjdzie synom Israela spożywać swój nieczysty chleb.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the Lord said, even thus shall the children of Israel,.... Not the ten tribes only, or those who were among the other two, but all the Jews in captivity:
eat the defiled bread among the Gentiles, whither I will drive them; so called, not because mixed, but baked in the above manner; which was a symbol of the defilements which they should contract upon various accounts, by dwelling among the Gentiles; so that this foretells their captivity; their pollution among the nations of the world; and that they should not be the holy people to the Lord they had been, and had boasted of. The Jews k cite this passage to prove that he that eats bread without drying his hands is as if he ate defiled bread.
k T. Bab. Sota, fol, 4. 2.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The ceremonial ordinances in relation to food were intended to keep the nation free from idolatrous usages; everywhere among the pagan idol feasts formed a leading part in their religious services, and idol meats were partaken of in common life. Dispersion among the Gentiles must have exposed the Jews to much which they regarded as common and unclean. In Ezekiel’s case there was a mitigation Ezekiel 4:15 of the defilement, but still legal defilement remained, and the chosen people in exile were subjected to it as to a degradation.
