Ezekiel 6:7

Iam the Lord The term Jehovah is used in the later prophets to mean the true and only God. In this prophet the purpose and the effect of all the judgments on Israel is that they may know that he who inflicts them is Jehovah God alone. The same is the purpose and effect of his judgments on the heathen theselearn also the same truth. But further, the redemption of Israel reveals this truth to the heathen fully. When the idols were cut down to the ground and the bones of their worshippers lay scattered around them, the futility of serving them could not but be perceived; Jeremiah 2:28, "where are thy gods that thou hast made? let them arise if they can save thee in the time of thy trouble." Cf. Hosea 2:7; Isaiah 57:12-13.
