What does Ezekiel 3:10-11 Mean?

Contextual Meaning

The Lord Yahweh instructed Ezekiel further to take to heart all that He would tell him and to listen closely to Him. He was to go to the Jewish exiles and relay God"s messages whether they paid attention or not.
God"s word must become a part of the messenger before he or she can go and speak to others about it (cf. Ezekiel 3:1; Ezra 7:10).
"The most difficult task of a prophet is to change people"s minds. This means pulling up the weeds of false theology and planting the good seed of the Word of God. It also means tearing down the flimsy thought structures that false prophets build and constructing in their place lasting buildings on solid foundations of truth (... 2 Corinthians 10:3-6)." [1]
