Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerse 35. - What hath the Lord answered? i.e. a simpler phraseology is to be used, Jehovah hath answered, saying, or, Jehovah hath spoken, according as a definite question had been put before the prophet or not.
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(35) Thus shall ye say . . .--The words are a protest against the high-sounding phrase, "This is the burden, the oracle of Jehovah." This, with which the false prophets covered their teachings of lies, the prophet rejects, and he calls men back to the simpler terms, which were less open to abuse. The true prophet's message was to be called an "answer" when men had come to him with questions--a "word of the Lord" when it was spoken to them without any previous inquiry.
