Ezekiel 12:11

Anglican
SCRIPTURE

"Say, I am your sign: like as I have done, so shall it be done unto them; they shall go into exile, into captivity." — Ezekiel 12:11 (ASV)

Your sign. —The change of pronoun is intentional. The prophet’s action was to be a sign not only to Zedekiah and the people in Jerusalem, but also to those in captivity, since they rested their hope upon the safety of the holy city.
