# Son of man "Son of a human being" or "Son of humanity." God emphasizes that Ezekiel is only a human being. God is eternal and powerful. See Ezekiel 2:1. # set your face against Mount Seir "stare toward Mount Seir so that the people there will be harmed". Mount Seir was far away, so Ezekiel could not see it, but Yahweh commands him to stare in that direction as a symbol of harming the people there. See Ezekiel 6:2. # Mount Seir and prophesy against it "Mount Seir and prophesy against it because of what the people of Edom have done"
