EZEKIEL 21:9 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Son of man, prophesy, and say, Thus saith the Lord; Say, A sword, a sword is sharpened, and also furbished:”
The sword is sharpened to make a slaughter, polished to flash like lightning, serving as the instrument through which God executes His judgment upon Jerusalem. The combination of sharpness and gleaming emphasizes both the deadly capability and the visible, unmistakable character of the coming judgment. The sword's preparation establishes the certainty of its use.
