EZEKIEL 25:14 — KING JAMES VERSION 1 0
“And I will lay my vengeance upon Edom by the hand of my people Israel: and they shall do in Edom according to mine anger and according to my fury; and they shall know my vengeance, saith the Lord God.”
I will lay My vengeance upon Edom by the hand of My people Israel, and they shall do in Edom according to My anger and My wrath, and Edom shall know My vengeance, declares the Lord God. Notably, God employs Israel itself as the instrument of judgment against Edom, elevating Israel from victim to executor of divine justice and vindicating Israel's own experience of suffering. This demonstrates a crucial theological principle: God restores His people's agency and dignity by making them participants in the restoration of cosmic order and the execution of justice.
