Sins of Our Fathers: In stereo with Jeremiah, Ezekiel also got an oracle from God condemning Israelites for saying "The fathers eat sour grapes and the children's teeth are set on edge," and stating that God is going to put a stop to that nonsense and make individuals take responsibility for all of their own infractions. | |

Pay Evil unto Evil: In Chapter 35, in God's judgment against Edom (Mount Seir), He says, "Because you harbored an ancient hatred and handed the people of Israel over to the sword in their time of calamity, the time set for their punishment— assuredly, as I live, declares the Lord GOD, I will doom you with blood; blood shall pursue you; I swear that, for your bloodthirsty hatred, blood shall pursue you. I will make Mount Seir an utter waste, and I will keep all passersby away from it." (verses 5 to 7) | |

Rags to Royalty: Jerusalem is spoken of in Chapter 16 as a woman God raised from an unwanted child to a queen, whose fame and beauty became known to the world because of the beauty He bestowed unto her. However, once she became popular, she turned into an adulterous woman seeking the surrounding nations for their favors instead of having them pay her for her services like a common prostitute. | |

Doomed Hometown: God pronounces doom to the people of Jerusalem throughout the early chapters of this book, telling them that He's going to send the sword, famine, and plague against them. In the later chapters, though, God tells the people who were sent into exile that He will bring them back, cleanse them of their sins, and give them a new heart and a new spirit so that they would obey Him and things will be well with them again. | |

Politically Incorrect Hero | |
Book of Ezekiel / int_55232afa | comment |
Politically Incorrect Hero: Ezekiel's graphic metaphorical descriptions of Judah as God's adulterous wife (who gets gruesomely punished by God for her sluttishness) are often considered politically incorrect today, especially by feminists (who often think the imagery is misogynistic, and/or encourages abusive relationships in real life). However, those same descriptions would already have been extremely politically incorrect in his own time, if not for the exact same reasons. Ezekiel's contemporary Jeremiah was accused of blasphemy for using far less offensive language in his own prophecies. | |

Holy Is Not Safe: God tells Ezekiel in Chapter 44 to warn the priests to leave the holy priest's clothes in the sacred chambers so that they do not "transmit holiness" unto the people and thus harm them. In Chapter 46, Ezekiel is shown the kitchens where the priests are to boil and bake the offerings to avoid carrying them into the outer court because they are also holy. | |

Jewish Complaining: God tells Ezekiel to bake bread for himself by using human excrement for fuel.

Depraved Homosexual | |
Book of Ezekiel / int_9cad69bf | comment |
While the other books of the Bible say Sodom was destroyed due to its people "going after other flesh" (in other words, perverted sexuality according to God), this book says what started her downfall was "pride, fullness of food, and abundance of idleness" and that she "did not strengthen the hand of the poor and needy". And from there, Sodom became haughty and went From Bad to Worse, thus bringing God's judgment upon them. Ezekiel does mention various unspecified "abominations" as sins that the people there also committed, as well, which may or may not be a reference to the more familiar story (since homosexuality is one example of things that fall under what the Bible calls "abominations" in other places). | |

Rule of Three: In Chapter 14, God uses the names of three righteous people — Noah, Daniel, and Job — to say that if even these three were to stand to intercede for Israel when God brings various judgments upon His people, they would only save themselves due to their own righteousness. In Chapter 21, God tells Ezekiel in regard to His judgment on Jerusalem: "Now you, son of man, prophesy. Clap your hands together. Let the sword strike two times or even three." (verse 14) | |

Dreaming of Things to Come: Chapters 38 and 39 can be interpreted as a future attack on Israel by Magog that will be thwarted supernaturally by God, where the people of Israel will be able to burn all of the invading army's supplies for fuel for seven years. note This is the future of Ezekiel's time. Chapters 40 to 48 speak of a future Temple to come and what the land of Israel will be like years off into the future. note This is future to Ezekiel's time. | |

Wanted a Son Instead | |
Book of Ezekiel / int_b1814b1d | comment |
Wanted a Son Instead: Implied in the parable God spoke through the prophet Ezekiel in Ezekiel chapter 16, since Middle Eastern cultures of that time desired boys over girls, partly inspired by the "seed of the woman" prophecy from the Book of Genesis that would "crush the head" of the "seed of the serpent", with the "seed of the woman" being a male figure, who turned out to be Jesus Christ. The infant girl of that parable, who represents God's people, is cast off as an unwanted child, and God, as the parent/future husband, spoke to the child, causing her to grow until she was old enough to be united with Him in a marriage covenant. | |

Pride | |
Book of Ezekiel / int_c39846a3 | comment |
Pride: Jerusalem, as depicted as a Rags to Royalty woman in Chapter 16, had a pride issue. God gave His people the best of everything and made them into a successful kingdom, but eventually fame went to their heads and they started "committing adultery" with the surrounding nations. Eventually God had to punish them because of their spiritually adulterous hearts. While the other books of the Bible say Sodom was destroyed due to its people "going after other flesh" (in other words, perverted sexuality according to God), this book says what started her downfall was "pride, fullness of food, and abundance of idleness" and that she "did not strengthen the hand of the poor and needy".

Dem Bones: Ezekiel is given a vision of a valley full of dry skeletons, where he is commanded to carry a prophecy. Before him, the bones connect into human figures, and then the bones become covered with tendon tissues, flesh, and skin. Then God reveals the bones to the prophet as the people of Israel in exile and commands Ezekiel to carry another prophecy in order to revitalize these human figures, to resurrect them, and to bring them to the land of Israel. | |

They are even sticking the branch up my nose!" (verse 17) | |

Easy Evangelism: Averted. In Chapter 3, God tells Ezekiel that he is being sent to be a messenger to his own people, "the House of Israel", instead of "to the many peoples of unintelligible speech and difficult language, whose talk you cannot understand." God's reason for this? "If I sent you to them, they would listen to you. But the House of Israel will refuse to listen to you, for they refuse to listen to Me; for the whole House of Israel are brazen of forehead and stubborn of heart." (verses 6 and 7) | |
