INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT EZEKIEL MINNIE’S CHAPEL

EZEKIEL “ God Strengthens” or God makes Hard.” Probably completed by 565 B.C. Ezekiel was a prophet during the seventy-year period of Babylonian Captivity. Ezekiel was taken to Babylon before Babylon’s final assault on Jerusalem. ■ Ezekiel used four things to dramatize his message: Prophecies Signs Parables Symbols

MINISTRY OF EZEKIEL ■ The vision of the Valley of Dry Bones (37) demonstrates that God can breathe new life into Judah again. ■ Like Jeremiah, Ezekiel was a priest who was called to be a prophet of the Lord. ■ A probable chronology would suggest that Jeremiah: Was born in 622 B.C. Was deported to Babylon in 597 B.C. Prophesied from 592 B.C. to at least 570 B: A ministry of 22 years.

SPAN OF HIS PREACHING Ezekiel was 25 years old when he was taken to Babylon. ■ He was 17 when Daniel was taken to Babylon in 605 B.C. Ezekiel received his prophetic commission when he was 30 ■ Ezekiel overlapped the end of Jeremiah’s ministry and the beginning of Daniel’s ministry

HIS MESSAGE A part of Ezekiel’s work was to remind the generation born during the Babylonian Captivity: The cause of Judah’s current destruction. Of God’s coming judgment on the Gentile nations. The people being restored back to Jerusalem.

VISION OF EZEKIEL In 572 B.C. some 14 years after the destruction of Jerusalem, Ezekiel returns in a vision to the fallen city (40-48) where he is given specific specifications for: The reconstruction of the Temple. The reconstruction of the city of Jerusalem. The reconstruction of the land.

NEBUCHADNEZZAR Nebuchadnezzar destroyed Jerusalem in three stages: 1st - In 605 B.C., he overcame Jehoiakim and carried off key hostages, including Daniel and his friends. 2nd - In 597 B.C., the rebellion of Jehoiakim and Jehoiachin brought further punishment. He made Jerusalem submit a second time. He carried 10,000 more hostages, including Jehoia kin and Ezekiel. 3rd - in 586 B.C., after a one-year and 17-month long siege, Nebuchadnezzar destroyed the city of Jerusalem and brought ravage and destruction to all of Judah.

THEMES IN EZEKIEL Gods Sovereignty over all the world  God resolved that he would be known and acknowledged.  Spoken 65 times in Ez. “Then they will know I am the Lord.”  God would be revealed in the fall of Jerusalem  Ch teach that the other nations would know him through his judgments.

THEMES CONT. Gods sovereignty is evident in his mobility  Not just limited to the temple  He can respond to the sins of his people and visit his children in Babylon  God is free to judge and equally free to be gracious  His judgments reflect his grace.  God allows the total destruction of Israel’s political and religious life so that her renewed life and his presence with her will be clearly seen as a gift from God.
