Explanation preview
God has just shown Ezekiel a sharpened sword, the coming Babylonian army, and now commands the prophet to clap his hands as a sign of the blow falling. Striking the hands together accompanies the announcement of judgment, and "two times, even three" is a Hebrew way of saying the blows will keep coming, not stop at one.
