Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Bible chapter
Ezekiel 33 is the thirty-third chapter of the Book of Ezekiel in the Hebrew Bible or the Old Testament of the Christian Bible. This book contains the prophecies attributed to the prophet/priest Ezekiel, and is one of the Books of the Prophets.[1] This chapter opens the third and final section of the book, in which God's future blessings on Israel are proclaimed.[2] A "complex interweaving of themes imported from the first twenty-four chapters of the book" is concerned with the concept of responsibility, including Ezekiel's own responsibility as a "watchman" (verse 7), and "the people's responsibility for their own moral and religious choices" (see also chapter 18).[3]
Text
The original text was written in the Hebrew language. This chapter is divided into 33 verses.

Verse 7
- "So you, son of man: I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel;
- therefore you shall hear a word from My mouth and warn them for Me." (NKJV)[4]
- "Son of man" (Hebrew: בן־אדם Шаблон:Strong-number-Шаблон:Strong-number): this phrase is used 93 times to address Ezekiel,Шаблон:Sfn six times in this chapter.
- "Watchman" (Hebrew: צָפָה Шаблон:Strong-number) or "sentinel":[3] the noun is derived from the Hebrew verb meaning to "look out or about, spy, keep watch"; properly "to lean forward", i.e. "to peer into the distance"; by implication, "to observe, await:—behold, espy, look up (well), wait for, (keep the) watch(-man)".Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn Ezekiel was first commissioned as a "watchman" in Шаблон:Bibleref2 and so biblical commentator Susan Galambush refers to this as "a new commission"; "ironically", she notes, "Ezekiel [is] commissioned to watch over a city that has already been destroyed".[3]
Verse 21
- And it came to pass in the twelfth year of our captivity, in the tenth month, on the fifth day of the month,
- that one who had escaped from Jerusalem came to me and said,
- "The city has been captured" from the Hebrew sentence הכתה העיר huk-kə-ṯāh hā-'îr. The first word is derived from the verb נָכָה Шаблон:Strong-number, meaning "to smite", "to strike" mostly "in the sense of hurting."Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn The second word means "the city" (עיר Шаблон:Strong-number means "city, town, abode of men")Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn
The date corresponds to January 8, 585 BCE, based on an analysis by German theologian Bernhard Lang.[6] Methodist commentator Joseph Benson notes that according to this reading, the news of the fall of Jerusalem reached Ezekiel, in Babylon, "one year, five months, and twenty-six days after the calamity happened", whereas the alternative reading in some ancient manuscripts, "in the eleventh year ..." is preferable, leaving only about six months as an interval.[7]
Verse 24
- "Son of man, they who inhabit those ruins in the land of Israel are saying, 'Abraham was only one, and he inherited the land. But we are many; the land has been given to us as a possession.'" (NKJV)[8]
