Ezekiel (Believers Church Bible Commentary) [Paperback]

Millard C. Lind (Author)

Editorial Reviews

Review

Millard Lind has taught the book of Ezekiel for 30 years in seminary and in the church. He skillfully opens the prophet's message about God's presence, covenant, victorious rule, concern for the nations, and cleansing for worship and obedience. God called Ezekiel to be a sentinel for his people, to warn them of pending danger. They must not look back to unjust Jerusalem nor join a revolt against Babylon. Instead, they are to turn and live by God's law, even in a foreign land. After judging the nations and Jerusalem, God will restore Israel to a renewed land. The people will be given a new heart and spirit -- a resurrection. God will defeat international terror and organize Israel as a new temple community, with the lord in their midst. Then all will know that God leads world history, not by militarists, but through a people serving as a moral exemplar for the nations. Professor Lind has a natural story-teller's gift for communication, and an experienced teacher's skill at engaging the student, as he introduces the reader into the timeless messages of one of the key Old Testament prophets. -- Midwest Book Review
