Ezekiel


thy lips. Ezekiel 24:17 "Forbear to cry, make no mourning for the dead, bind the tire of thine head upon thee, and put on thy shoes upon thy feet, and cover not thy lips, and eat not the bread of men." Ezekiel here is being told he needs to make things right with the Lord. He has lost his wife and that has been hard on him, but he knows he needs to do what the Lord wants him to do.

Aven and Pibeseth. Ezekiel 30:17 "The young men of Aven and of Pibeseth shall fall by the sword: and these cities shall go into captivity." Aven means "wickedness". Pibeseth means means "house of Bastet". It is about 45 minutes NE of Cairo, Egypt.

Valley of Hamongog.
