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 And will ye profane me among my people for handfuls of barley and for pieces of bread, slaying the souls that should not die and giving life to the souls that should not live, by your lying to my people that listen to the lie?
20 Therefore thus hath the Lord GOD said; Behold, I am against your pillows, with which ye hunt there the loose souls, and I will tear them from your arms and will let the souls go, even the loose souls that ye hunt.
21 Your kerchiefs also I will tear and deliver my people out of your hand, and they shall no longer be in your hand to be hunted; and ye shall know that I am the LORD.
22 Because with lies ye have made the heart of the righteous sad, whom I have not made sad; and ye strengthen the hands of the wicked that he should not leave his wicked way, encouraging him:
23 therefore ye shall not see vanity, nor divine divinations any longer: for I will deliver my people out of your hand; and ye shall know that I am the LORD.
