Clarke's Ezekiel 13:2 Bible Commentary
That prophesy out of their own hearts - Who are neither inspired nor sent by Me. They are prophets out of their own hearts. They have their mission from their own assumption, and proceed in it from their own presumption. Such either go of themselves, or are sent by man. Such prophets, ministers, preachers, and clergy have been a curse to the Church and to the world for some thousands of years.
Wesley's Ezekiel 13:2 Bible Commentary
13:2 That prophesy - Out of their own deceiving hearts, not from God.
