Ezekiel 4 · Grade 3
Ezekiel Acts It Out
Read the Story
God told Ezekiel to take a tile and draw the city of Jerusalem on it. Then he set an iron pan like a wall between himself and the city. This was a sign to the house of Israel.
Ezekiel was to lie on his left side for three hundred ninety days. Then he would lie on his right side for forty days. Each day stood for a year.
God told him to mix wheat, barley, beans, and lentils to make bread. He ate it by weight and drank water by measure. This showed that bread and water would run low in Jerusalem.
