Ezekiel 24:24 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 24:24

Thus Ezekiel is unto you a sign
These are the words of the prophet concerning himself; observing that in all the above things he was a sign to the Jews of what should befall them, and what should be their case: and according to all that he hath done shall ye do;
however it might be then a matter of scorn and derision: and when this cometh:
when this prophecy comes to pass, and all these calamities come upon the city and temple: ye shall know that I am the Lord God;
omniscient, omnipotent, true, and faithful.

Ezekiel 24:24 In-Context

22 Then you will do what I have done. You will not cover your faces or eat the food that mourners eat.
23 You will not go bareheaded or barefoot or mourn or cry. You will waste away because of your sins, and you will groan to one another.
24 Then I will be a sign to you; you will do everything I have done. The Lord says that when this happens, you will know that he is the Sovereign Lord."
25 The Lord said, "Now, mortal man, I will take away from them the strong Temple that was their pride and joy, which they liked to look at and to visit. And I will take away their sons and daughters.
26 On the day that I do this, some who escape the destruction will come and tell you about it.
