Untitled Haiku De

No Description

PRESENTATION OUTLINE

Lamentations:

This is an outpouring of sadness over the destruction of Jerusalem by Babylon.

Ezekiel:

Ezekiel was a priest living with the Jewish exiles in Babylon after the taking of Judah and Jerusalem by Babylon, around 580-600 B.C.

Valley of the Dry Bones
In a vision, Ezekiel was carried to a valley of old, dry bones, and Ezekiel spoke the Words of the Lord, whereby the bones came together, became covered with skin, and became alive again. This was a symbol of the Hebrews, with all hope seeming to be gone, returning once again to their own land and thriving.

As Isaiah and Jeremiah, Ezekiel warned of the "last days" -- the future around his time (or even possibly yet to come now):
1. " I will bring you from the nations...I will execute judgment upon you." (Ezekiel 20:34-35).

2. "...'Wail...' For... the day of the Lord is near -- a day of clouds, a time of doom for the nations." (Ezekiel 30:2-3).

3. "...every creature that moves...all the people on the face of the earth will tremble...The mountains will be overturned, the cliffs will crumble and every wall will fall to the ground...I will pour down torrents of rain, hailstones and burning sulfur..." (Ezekiel 38:20-22)

Ezekiel implies that Gog (representing all forces of evil) from the land of Magog will be finished "in the latter years of history."
