English
Behold, the day is here! It has come! Doom has gone out, the rod has budded, arrogance has bloomed.

Notes

rod has budded: The evil and pride of the people of Israel had fully grown. Their sin had reached its peak. They were ready for judgment, like fruit that is ripe and ready to be picked (see Amos 8:1–2).

Ezekiel 7 contains three messages of doom (7:3–4, 5–9, 10–27). These messages reminded Judah that their coming destruction was not random. It was an act of the Lord's judgment.

These chapters discuss words and actions that warned of disaster for Jerusalem (Ezekiel 4–5) and the land of Judah (Ezekiel 6–7).
