Lesson 26

FALL OF JERUSALEM
Read: Ezekiel 34
    Chronology
  1. "The shepherds of Israel" were whom? (Consider the meaning of shepherds in Jer. 23:1-8. Do verses 9-13 speak of the same group as verses 1-8, or of a new group? Also see Jer. 3:15; 10:21; Is. 44:28; Jer. 25:32-38; Zech. 11:1-17; 1 Kings 22:17; Ps. 78:70-72.)

     
  2. "The flock" represented whom?

     
  3. What had the shepherds done, and what had they failed to do?

     
  4. Where had the flock wandered, and what is perhaps the significance of this particular figure? (cf. Ezek. 6:13; 1 Kings 14:23; 2 Kings 16:4; Is. 57:7; Hos. 4:13. However, Keil denies this significance, attributing the language of Ezek. 34:6 to 1 Kings 22:17.)

     

  5. In what sense would God demand his sheep from the shepherds? (34:10; cf. Jer. 23: 2)

     

  6. The scattering of the sheep (34:5,6, 12) represents what? (cf. 34:13; also note Ezekiel's use of the word "scatter" throughout the book as well as the use of the word in Leviticus, from whence much of Ezekiel's language is taken.)

     
  7. Verses 11ff speak of what?

     

  8. (Note that the KJV speaks of sheep as cattle) What division is suggested by verses 17-22?

     

  9. God would set over his sheep one shepherd, namely _______________________.

     

  10. "David" represents whom? (cf. Jer. 23:5-6)

     

  11. Give another example of an O.T. character being used to represent a N.T. character.

     

  12. What statements in this chapter indicate that God thought of his people, not in terms of actual nationality, but in terms of spiritual nationality?
