Exegesis

The phrase yadi el {יָדִ֗י אֶל־ | yā-ḏî ʾel} ‘my hand against’ expresses divine opposition idiomatically.

Three successive negations lo-yihyu {לֹא־יִהְיוּ | lōʾ-yi-ḥyû}, lo-yikatevu {לֹא יִכָּתֵ֔בוּ | lōʾ-yiḵ-kā-ṯê-ḇû}, and lo-yavo’u {לֹא יָבֹ֑אוּ | lōʾ-yā-bōʾû} frame exclusion from the council, registry, and land of Israel.

In contextEzekiel 13:9

And my hand shall be against the prophets who see vanity and the diviners of lies; they shall not be in the council of my people, nor shall they be written in the writing of the house of Israel, nor shall they enter the land of Israel; and you shall know that I am the Lord GOD .
