Ezekiel 39:17-20

The Scavengers Are Called to a Great Sacrificial Feast (Ezekiel 39:17).

A huge emphasis in this chapter is on the purification of Israel and the awful fate of the wicked. Both are again involved here, with the emphasis on the latter. The scavengers clean up the land, but here they are also seen as attending a sacrificial feast in which they partake of the offering, and the offering is the wicked dead.
