What does Ezekiel 24:15 mean?

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown
15. Second part of the vision; announcement of the death of Ezekiel's wife, and prohibition of the usual signs of mourning.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on Ezekiel 24:15-27
Though mourning for the dead is a duty, yet it must be kept under by religion and right reason: we must not sorrow as men that have no hope. Believers must not copy the language and expressions of those who know not God. The people asked the meaning of the sign. God takes from them all that was dearest to them. And as Ezekiel wept not for his affliction, so neither should they weep for theirs. Blessed be God, we need not pine away under our afflictions; for should all comforts fail, and all sorrows be united, yet the broken heart and the mourner's prayer are always acceptable before God.
