Ezekiel 20:36-38
Context20:36 Just as I entered into judgment with your fathers in the wilderness of the land of Egypt, so I will enter into judgment with you, declares the sovereign Lord. 20:37 I will make you pass under 1 the shepherd’s staff, 2 and I will bring you into the bond of the covenant. 20:38 I will eliminate from among you the rebels and those who revolt 3 against me. I will bring them out from the land where they have been residing, but they will not come to the land of Israel. Then you will know that I am the Lord.
