Ezekiel 21:22 - Forerunner Commentary

Ezekiel 21:22

20 Appoint a road for the sword to go to ^aRabbah of the Ammonites, and to Judah, into fortified Jerusalem.

21 For the king of Babylon stands at the parting of the road, at the fork of the two roads, to use divination: he shakes the arrows, he consults the¹ images, he looks at the liver.

22 In his right hand is the divination for Jerusalem: to set up battering rams, to call for a slaughter, to ^alift the voice with shouting, ^bto set battering rams against the gates, to heap up a siege mound, and to build a wall.

23 And it will be to them like a false divination in the eyes of those who ^ahave sworn oaths with them; but he will bring their iniquity to remembrance, that they may be taken.

24 “Therefore thus says the Lord God: ‘Because you have made your iniquity to be remembered, in that your transgressions are uncovered, so that in all your doings your sins appear—because you have come to remembrance, you shall be taken in hand.

25 ‘Now to you, O ^aprofane, wicked prince of Israel, ^bwhose day has come, whose iniquity shall end,

26 thus says the Lord God:
“Remove the turban, and take off the crown;
Nothing shall remain the same.
^aExalt the humble, and humble the exalted.
