Ezekiel 12:14
And I will scatter toward every wind all that are about him to help him, and all his bands; and I will draw out the sword after them. And I will scatter toward every wind all that are about him to help him, and all his bands; and I will draw out the sword after them.
The verse declares that God himself will scatter toward every wind all who are about the ruler to help him, together with all his bands, and will draw out the sword after them. The scattering is part of God's judgment in dispersing Israel among the nations.
The Hebrew word roo-agh in the verse is used in the sense of wind. Ezekiel spoke it as the mouthpiece of God among Israel's captives in Babylonia by the river Chebar while Jeremiah was prophesying in Jerusalem. It belongs to Ezekiel 12:2-21, which concerns literal Israel carried to literal Babylon and held there seventy years while the land enjoyed its sabbath, in a state of continual rebellion.
It is God's warning to a rebellious house that has eyes to see and sees not and ears to hear and hears not. The scattering connected with Esarhaddon and Manasseh's captivity in 677 B.C. is the beginning of that dispersal, and serves as the starting point for reckoning the chronology of the scattering of the holy people. It urges the honest to flee the rebellious house, to repent speedily, and to confess every known sin while Jesus stands before the Father to seal them, lest they be left to the seven last plagues and the four sore judgments and be destroyed in the great and dreadful day of the Lord by the wrath of God and the Lamb, with their names blotted from the book of life.
