Ezekiel 36

YHWH pronounces judgment against the nations (particularly Edom) who sought to possess Israel's desolate land, promising to restore the mountains and cities of Israel.[1][2][3] YHWH declares He will cleanse the people of their uncleanness through water, give them new hearts and spirits, restore agricultural abundance, and rebuild the ruined cities so they become like the garden of Eden, vindicating His name before all nations.[2][3][6]
