Context
A Promise of Restoration
13Now as I was prophesying, Pelatiah son of Benaiah died. Then I fell facedown and cried out in a loud voice, “Oh, Lord GOD, will You bring the remnant of Israel to a complete end?” 14Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying, 15“Son of man, your brothers—your relatives, your fellow exiles, and the whole house of Israel—are those of whom the people of Jerusalem have said, ‘They are far away from the LORD; this land has been given to us as a possession.’…

Then the word of the LORD
This phrase signifies a divine communication, a hallmark of prophetic literature. In Hebrew, "word" is "dabar," which implies not just a spoken word but an active, dynamic force. The "word of the LORD" is a recurring theme in Ezekiel, emphasizing the authority and power of God's message. Historically, prophets were seen as mouthpieces of God, and this phrase underscores the divine origin of Ezekiel's message, affirming its truth and reliability.

came to me
The phrase indicates a personal and direct revelation to Ezekiel. The Hebrew verb "hayah" (came) suggests an occurrence or event, highlighting the immediacy and personal nature of God's communication. This underscores the intimate relationship between God and His prophets, where God chooses specific individuals to convey His will. It also reflects the historical context of the Babylonian exile, where God continued to speak to His people through Ezekiel, despite their physical separation from the temple in Jerusalem.

saying
This word introduces the content of God's message. In Hebrew, "amar" (saying) is often used to denote the beginning of a divine speech. It prepares the reader for the authoritative and instructive nature of what follows. The use of "saying" here is a reminder of the prophetic tradition where God's words are not just for information but for transformation, calling the people to repentance and faithfulness. It sets the stage for the unfolding of God's plans and purposes, which are central to the prophetic mission of Ezekiel.

(14) Again the word.--This does not mark the beginning of a separate prophecy, but only the Divine answer to the prophet's intercession. This answer differs entirely from the denunciations that have gone before, because it no longer relates to the people of Jerusalem (for whom intercession was in vain: Ezekiel 9:9-10), but turns to the exiles, and foretells God's mercy and blessing upon them.

Verse 14. - The answer to that question comes as by a new inspiration from the word of the Lord.
