“Behold, it is come, and it is done, saith the Lord God; this is the day whereof I have spoken.”
Behold, it is coming and it will be done, declares the Lord God, and this is the day of which Ezekiel has spoken—a confirmation that the events Ezekiel has prophesied will certainly come to pass. The phrase 'it is coming and it will be done' emphasizes both the inevitability and the certainty of the prophesied events; the divine word guarantees fulfillment. The invocation of 'the day' suggests eschatological significance; this is not merely a historical event but the day when divine judgment manifests itself. This verse assures both Ezekiel and his audience that the prophecy is not speculative but guaranteed by the divine word. The verse functions as a transition between the announcement of judgment and the description of its aftermath.
