Ezekiel 28 · Grade 4

You Are Man, Not God

Name Date

Read and Think

God told Ezekiel to speak to the prince of Tyre. The king's heart was lifted up, and he claimed to be a god. He was wiser than Daniel, and by his trading he had gathered gold and silver into his treasuries. But God said he was a man, and not God. Strangers would come and bring him down.

Then God gave a lament over the king of Tyre. He had been full of wisdom and perfect in beauty, adorned with every precious stone. He was pictured like a guardian cherub on God's holy mountain. But his heart was lifted up because of his beauty, and he corrupted his wisdom. So God cast him down before kings.

After a word to Sidon, God gave a promise. He would gather the house of Israel from the peoples among whom they were scattered. They would live securely in their own land, build houses, and plant vineyards, and they would know that he is Yahweh their God.

  2. God brought down the proud king but promised safety to His people. Why does God oppose pride?
