INTRODUCTION TO EZEKIEL
This book is named after the prophet Ezekiel, whose name means “God is strong” His messages are dated between the years 593-571 B.C. and were given to his fellow exiles in Babylonian captivity.
Ezekiel grew up in the environs of the temple in Jerusalem, since he was born in a priestly family. Born in 623 B.C., he witnessed the changing fortunes of his people and was included in the exile to Babylon in 597 B.C. Called to the prophetic ministry in 597 B.C. through a spectacular divine revelation (chapters 1-3), He was made conscience of God’s presence and message in the mist of the adulterous surroundings of Babylon.
After the news reach Babylon that Jerusalem Actually had been destroyed in 586 B.C. Ezekiel proclaimed a new message of hope and restoration. God as the great shepherd will regather the Israelites from the ends of the earth and reestablish them in their own land. The nations who challenge Israel’s return will be defeated and judged.
