Ezekiel 20:48 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 20:48

And all flesh shall see that I the Lord have kindled it
Not only the inhabitants of Jerusalem and Judea should see the hand of the Lord in their destruction; but even all the neighbouring nations, the case was so clear and plain, the matter so visible: it shall not be quenched;
no stop put to it by all the art and power of man; so that it was a clear point that it was the Lord's doing.

Ezekiel 20:48 In-Context

46 "Son of man, face south. Let the Message roll out against the south. Prophesy against the wilderness forest of the south.

47 "Tell the forest of the south, 'Listen to the Message of God! God, the Master, says, I'll set a fire in you that will burn up every tree, dead trees and live trees alike. Nobody will put out the fire. The whole country from south to north will be blackened by it.

48 Everyone is going to see that I, God, started the fire and that it's not going to be put out.'"

49 And I said, "O God, everyone is saying of me, 'He just makes up stories.'" A Sword! A Sword!
