CHAPTER 17: The Riddle of the Great Eagle and the Vine

"The Other Eagle": Egypt	Ezekiel 17:1-4
	A Second Eagle planted a vine [17:16-24] The Vine will be uprooted and wither [17:9] The Great Eagle: King of Babylon[17:28-38] Rebellion condemne [17:15] Seige predicted for broken oath [17:18-20] Zedekiah will be brought to Babylon [17:23-63]

"Nebuchadnezzar put Zedekiah (one of the royal “seed of the land”) on the throne in Jerusalem. The new Judean king was made to take an oath in God’s name, obligating him to be a loyal vassal king. (2 Chron. 36:13) But Zedekiah despised his oath; he rebelled against Babylon and turned to the Egyptian Pharaoh (the second “great eagle”) for military help, but to no avail"- rr chap 8 p. 85 par 6

", But the king finally rebelled against him by sending his messengers to Egypt to obtain horses and a large army from them. Will he succeed? Will the one doing these things escape punishment? Can he break the covenant and still escape?’" - Ezekiel 17:13-14
