For God is with us.” <a href="/psalms/2-1.htm">Psalm 2:1-3</a> Why do the nations rage and the peoples plot in vain? / The kings of the earth take their stand and the rulers gather together, against the LORD and against His Anointed One: / “Let us break Their chains and cast away Their cords.” <a href="/isaiah/17-12.htm">Isaiah 17:12-14</a> Alas, the tumult of many peoples; they rage like the roaring seas and clamoring nations; they rumble like the crashing of mighty waters. / The nations rage like the rush of many waters. He rebukes them, and they flee far away, driven before the wind like chaff on the hills, like tumbleweeds before a gale. / In the evening, there is sudden terror! Before morning, they are no more!

It connects Ezekiel to his prophetic mission, similar to how Jesus is referred to as the "Son of Man" in the New Testament, highlighting His role in fulfilling prophecy and His connection to humanity.and tell Gog that this is what the Lord GOD says: Gog is often identified as a leader or a symbolic representation of forces opposed to God and His people. The phrase underscores the authority of the message, as it comes directly from the Lord GOD, indicating divine judgment and sovereignty. This echoes other prophetic declarations where God speaks against nations or leaders, such as in Isaiah and Jeremiah.On that day when My people Israel are dwelling securely, This phrase suggests a future time of peace and security for Israel, which is a recurring theme in prophetic literature. It may refer to a period of temporary peace or a messianic age. The notion of Israel dwelling securely is also found in passages like <a href="/jeremiah/23-6.htm">Jeremiah 23:6</a> and <a href="/zechariah/14-11.htm">Zechariah 14:11</a>, which speak of a time when God will restore and protect His people.will you not take notice of this? This rhetorical question implies that Gog will be aware of Israel's security and will be prompted to act. It suggests a divine orchestration of events, where God uses the actions of nations to fulfill His purposes. This aligns with the biblical theme of God using even the plans of adversaries to accomplish His will, as seen in the stories of Joseph and the crucifixion of Jesus.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <a href="/topical/e/ezekiel.htm">Ezekiel</a> A prophet of God, called to deliver messages of warning and hope to the Israelites during their Babylonian exile. 2. <a href="/topical/g/gog.htm">Gog</a> A leader or symbolic figure representing a coalition of nations opposed to Israel.
