Book of Ezekiel, the Chapters 25-48 (New International Commentary On The Old Testament Series)

To many modern readers, the prophecies of Ezekiel are a mystery. This commentary seeks to answer the questions that contemporary readers bring to the text by examining the language, the message, and the methods of this obscure and often misunderstood Hebrew prophet. It provides an excellent discussion of the background of Ezekiel and offers a verse-by-verse exposition of each literary/prophetic unit, making clear the prophet's message to his original readers and to us today. 826 pages, from Eerdmans

This work completes Daniel Block's two-volume commentary on the book of Ezekiel. The result of twelve years of studying this difficult section of Scripture, this volume, like the one on chapters 1-24, provides an excellent discussion of the background of Ezekiel and offers a verse-by-verse exposition that makes clear the message of this obscure and often misunderstood prophet. Block also shows that Ezekiel's ancient wisdom and vision are still very much needed as we enter the twenty-first century.Read less
