Ezekiel 4:5

For I have laid upon thee the years of their iniquity, according to the number of the days, three hundred and ninety days: so shalt thou bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.

Ver. 5. Three hundred and ninety days.] That is, say some, the siege of Jerusalem shall continue so many days - via, thirteen months, or thereabouts. But they do better, who, taking a day for a year in both the accounts, as Eze 4:6 and making the forty of Judah to run along with the last year of Israel's 390, end both at Nabuzaradan's carrying away to Babylon the last relics of Israel and Judah: and begin Israel's years at Jeroboam's apostasy, and Judah's at Huldah's prophecy in the eighteenth of Josiah's reign, when the law was found but not observed by that idolatrous people, as appeareth by the complaints made of them by Zephaniah and Jeremiah; neither were they warned by their brethren's miseries, the ten tribes being now carried into captivity. Compare Ezekiel 1:1,2; Ezekiel 3:15; Ezekiel 3:24,27; Ezekiel 8:1 .
