Ezekiel 28:20
“Yahweh’s word came to me, saying,”
What does Ezekiel 28:20 mean?
This is one of the repeated opening formulas throughout Ezekiel that marks the beginning of a new message from God to the prophet. The phrase shows how Ezekiel understood his calling: God actively spoke to him, and what followed came with divine authority rather than his own opinion. For readers in hard seasons, these simple words remind us that God initiates communication with his people and invites us into conversation with him rather than leaving us to figure things out alone.
