God calls Ezekiel this to emphasize that Ezekiel is only a human being. God is eternal and powerful, but humans are not. See how you translated this in Ezekiel 2:1. Alternate translation: “Mortal person” or “Human”

(Some words not found in UHB: son_of humankind set face,your on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in mount Sēˊīr and,prophesy on/upon/above=him/it )

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 how you translated a similar phrase in Ezekiel 6:2. Alternate translation: “turn toward Mount Seir and stare” or “stare toward Mount Seir so that the people there will be harmed”

(Some words not found in UHB: son_of humankind set face,your on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in mount Sēˊīr and,prophesy on/upon/above=him/it )

“the mountain of Seir.” Yahweh tells Ezekiel to speak to Mount Seir as if it could hear him. The message is for all of the people of Edom. Alternate translation: “Mount Seir and prophesy against it because of what the people of Edom have done”
