Notes

The modern church has become a comfortable place, as congregations focus on creating warm and welcoming environments. But have casual attitudes replaced reverence for the Lord? The prophet Ezekiel was called to remind God’s people about His holy and glorious nature, and that message remains as relevant today as when it was first delivered. This study examines Ezekiel’s mission to describe the indescribable, a God beyond imagining, a King worthy of our reverence.

Part of Dr. Warren W. Wiersbe’s best-selling “BE” commentary series, BE Reverent has now been updated with study questions and a new introduction by Ken Baugh. A respected pastor and Bible teacher, Dr. Wiersbe calls us to rediscover the awesomeness of the Lord. Filled with inspiring words and images, Ezekiel’s timeless message will draw you into a deeper level of holy reverence for our God.

The Good Book Stall

This is an updated version of a book first published in 1996. It is part of the well known “Be” series of Bible commentaries written by the American Warren Wiersbe.   
Exekiel is a difficult book to read and interpret and is therefore often neglected (when did you last hear a sermon on Ezekiel?). Mr. Wiersbe however shows that the book is very relevant for our age because it emphasises a reverence for the name and glory of God. This is something he sees as sadly lacking in the church today. How true!  
Taking three or more chapters at a time, the author explores the major themes and identifies key lessons for us. He writes in an interesting and engaging style, with thoughtful and helpful application.   
For me the only disappointing part of this book are his comments on chapters 38 to 48 which cover Gog and the description of a new temple. Although Mr. Wiersbe admits that Christians have struggled to interpret these prophecies, he proceeds to confidently explain them based on pre-millennial teaching. This turns these chapters into little more than a future history lesson with little relevance to the church today. He also fails to tackle the weaknesses of such an interpretation (e.g. how can he justify believing that the sacrificial system will be re-introduced in the light of the teaching of Hebrews ?). This is a shame because it mars an otherwise excellent book.
