Ezekiel 13:21 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 13:21

Your kerchiefs also will one tear
From their heads; discover their tricks, and expose them to the contempt of the people, and destroy both them and their works: and deliver my people out of your hand;
from being hunted, ensnared, and deceived by them: and they shall be no more in your land to be hunted;
but should either flee into Egypt, and other countries, for shelter, or be carried captive into Babylon: and ye shall know that I [am] the Lord;
see ( Ezekiel 13:9 Ezekiel 13:14 ) .

Ezekiel 13:21 In-Context

19 You profane Me in front of My people for handfuls of barley and scraps of bread; you kill those who should not die and spare those who should not live, when you lie to My people, who listen to lies.

20 "Therefore, this is what the Lord God says: I am against your [magic] bands that you ensnare people with like birds, and I will tear them from your arms. I will free the people you have ensnared like birds.

21 I will also tear off your veils and deliver My people from your hands, so that they will no longer be prey in your hands. Then you will know that I am the Lord.

22 Because you have disheartened the righteous person with lies, even though I have not caused him grief, and because you have encouraged the wicked person not to turn from his evil way to save his life,

23 therefore you will no longer see false visions or practice divination. I will deliver My people from your hands. Then you will know that I am the Lord."
