Hey Bible readers, I'm Tara Lee Cobble and I'm your host for the Bible Recap.

God's words to Ezekiel today come down pretty strong. He doesn't sugarcoat these two chapters.

0:18.0

Chapter 21 opens with a prophecy about God drawing a sword against the land of Israel.

0:22.7

And it's especially unsettling because in verse 4 he says he will cut off both righteous and wicked.

0:28.4

The righteous too? Why's that?

0:30.8

We won't find out until the end of today's reading, so put a pin in this, we'll come back to it.

Next God tells Ezekiel to mourn and grieve over what's happening and to spread the word about it to everyone who asks.

And in verse 27, God says this ruin, ruin, ruin,

1:19.3

will happen when Zetakaya becomes king,

1:21.4

although it doesn't mention him by name.

1:23.8

God has promised to judge him and he won't withhold it.

1:26.7

We read about his downfall in Jeremiah 52, and it was a ruin, ruin, rumin, indeed. Then God tells the Ammonites they aren't off the hook.
