I will also smite mine hands together, and I will cause my fury to rest: I the LORD have said it.
Ezekiel 21:17 stands in the account of God's judgment on Israel after idolatry and Sabbath desecration led to the people's dispersion and exile. It expresses God's anger as He brings that judgment to its appointed end. Its chapter points out the destruction of the kingdom of Judah and the change in human dominion. Three more overturnings of dominion were to take place through Medo-Persia, Grecia, and Rome, and then Christ would come and the kingdom would be His.
