Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 28. - (See Ezekiel 13:10.) The fact that the prophets are addressed here gives some force to the idea that "chiefs" or "judges" were addressed in Ver. 27.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(28) With untempered morter.--See Note on Ezekiel 13:10. The prophets are here again spoken of in reference to their powerful influence upon the princes in leading them astray by falsehoods. "Seeing vanity" is an expression for pretended and false visions. (Comp. Ezekiel 13:7; Ezekiel 13:9-10.)
