Ezekiel 32:17

Anglican
SCRIPTURE

"It came to pass also in the twelfth year, in the fifteenth [day] of the month, that the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying," — Ezekiel 32:17 (ASV)

The fifteenth day of the month.—The month itself is not mentioned, but since the previous prophecy was in the twelfth, or last month of the year, this must be in the same. There was thus an interval of just fourteen days between them. This dirge, which occupies the rest of the chapter, is to be compared with Isaiah 14:0, on which it is evidently founded.
