Ezekiel |
The Book of Ezekiel is a book of the Hebrew Bible named after the
prophet Ezekiel, a prophet from the sixth-century BC. This book records
Ezekiel's preaching. His name (Hb. Yekhezqe?l) means "God strengthens" or "May
God strengthen". Ezekiel lived out his prophetic career among the community of
exiled Judeans in Babylon. He belonged to the priestly class and was married
(see Ezk. 24:15-24), but it is doubtful that he had any children.
The frequent use of vivid, symbolic language causes this book to have much in
common with the Book of Revelation in the New Testament.
