Book of Ezekiel

The Book of Ezekiel is and the man himself is in the midst of historical event associated with the demise of Judah and the destruction of Jerusalem (587 B.C.E) Ezekiel, along with other Judahites were taken into exile in Babylon in 597. In effect there were two Judahs one in the land of Judah and one in exile. One king, Jehoiachin was in exile and Zedekiah in Jerusalem. Under Babylonian bonds and rejecting prophetic advice, they refused to pay their tribute. Within a few years, the temple, city

author of this book is Ezekiel The main theme of this book is about God’s judgment, and his glory. The ultimate purpose of this book is for the sustenance of Gods faith in the ones who were exiled, and concerning his people, he wanted to bring back the restoration of God and to also restore the glory of his kingdom for the last time. (In this book) What I really like about this book, is Ezekiel’s challenging thoughts, and promises that he brings from the Lord. And you knew that when Ezekiel spoke, he

in front of us is a world full of color, meaning, and devotion. Abraham Rattner’s painting Ezekiel’s Valley of Dry Bones made in 1963 is a spiritual piece. It’s based of the book of Ezekiel in the old testament of the bible. Ezekiel was a prophet and he had strong beliefs in resurrection. Many people didn’t believe Ezekiel when he spoke about the actual possibility of bones returning to life. With the help of The Lord he was able to show the rest of Israel this belief. The keynote of this art piece

The Book of Ezekiel contains three different sections in which all three address a subject matter. There’s almost nothing mentioned about Ezekiel in the book, his name is only mentioned twice surprisingly. Ezekiel was one of the more youthful men taken to Babylon in the first captivity, which happened in 597 B.C. In spite of the fact that Ezekiel existed amid a period when the Babylonians consistently crushed Israel his confidence stayed solid with one God, Yahweh. Not at all like Ezekiel, countless

From Man of Sin to Man of Satan It is amazing how much God has revealed to us in His word, the Bible. It’s all there, right in front of us, if we’d only look. Ezekiel 28 is one of the most remarkable of ALL the passages on the Antichrist. From a personal “inside” perspective, it rivals 2 Thessalonians 2 and Revelation. It reveals for us a person who will stop at nothing to gain wealth, and a person who is wise in his own eyes. I list the chapter in its entirety— 1The word of the LORD came again

The book of Ezekiel reiterates a message that is clear from the beginning of the story of creation. Simply put, it is about God being the focal point and the source of all good rather than humanity. Often times while reading the scripture we tend to focus on the importance of humanity and foolishly put aside God himself! This message of forsaking God’s law and the pure simple message of his word naturally leads to the judgement of God. Ezekiel is ordained by God to speak to the Israelites and remind

experiences a connection with the book of the prophet Ezekiel. Throughout Marilynne Robinson’s Lila, the character Lila, has trouble understanding why things happen the way they do. On pages 124-125 of Marilynne Robinson’s Lila, an old man asks Lila “Why Ezekiel? That’s a pretty sad book, I think. I mean there’s a lot of sadness in it. It’s a difficult place to begin.” The character Lila, says “It’s interesting. It talks about why things happen”. Throughout the book of Lila, Lila questions herself

a valley full of dried out bones that have been scattered all around. Here God asked Ezekiel if he thinks the bones could live. Ezekiel answers God by saying that only the lord could know the answer to this. God then demonstrates his power by telling Ezekiel to prophesy to the bones. While Ezekiel is prophesying the bones reconnect, they form tendons, muscle, and skin and become living beings. God tells Ezekiel that he will resurrect his people from their graves and the land of Israel will once again

illustrate. Ezekiel chapter 19 uses two separate images with intertwined meanings to illustrate a lament to the end of the Davidic kingship. This lament is unique in many ways, and the imagery used expresses meaning not only to the people in the ancient context, but also can be relevant in our contemporary culture. The author writes this passage in such a way that it links to many other parts of the bible thus causing the reader to reflect on many issues within this short passage. Ezekiel chapter 19
