The Old Testament book of Ezekiel is quite possibly the most intimidating book of the Bible for Christian readers and it is largely unread and often misunderstood! This concise book has been written to help correct that!
This is not a chapter-by-chapter analysis, nor a verse-by-verse exegesis, but a topic-by-topic examination. The topics include ‘Ezekiel’s Life and Times’, to give us a flavour for the book; ‘Visions of God’, investigating what is revealed of deity; ‘Imagery and Symbolism’, looking at some of Ezekiel’s methodology; ‘Ezekiel’s Visions’, God’s ways of communicating with him; ‘Of Him Bare all the Prophets Witness’, seeing Christ in Ezekiel; ‘Judgement on Judah and Jerusalem’, and lessons for our own well-being; ‘Judgement on Neighbouring Nations’ - how to treat those suffering God’s judgements; ‘The Restoration of Israel’, a look at the future, glorious for Israel and for ourselves; ‘A Word to Shepherds’, current direction to those who assume leadership of God’s people; and ‘The LORD Is There’, an examination of the entities that will make up the millennium in Israel.
