Bible In A Year: Exilic Prophets

Daniel and Ezekiel were written during Israel’s exile in Babylon and reveal God’s sovereignty over nations and His faithfulness to His people. Daniel shows that God rules over kings and kingdoms through events such as the fiery furnace, the lions’ den, and prophetic visions. Ezekiel calls Israel to repentance, announces judgment, and promises future restoration, including a new heart and a new spirit. These books show that even in exile, God remains in control and continues His plan for His people according to His word.

Exile Prophets And Babylon’s Invasions

SPEAKER_03 1:07

Today uh we find ourselves again in the prophets. We we already talked about the what we could say pre-exilic prophets. Uh we looked at uh the wisdom books or wisdom literature, and now today we're going to look at uh the prophets that wrote to Israel during their time in exile. Uh and so we're gonna jump in uh specifically to Ezekiel and Daniel. Um and uh so doc, if you would begin walking us through, help us understand.

Dr. David Klingler 1:38

So last week we were talking about the wisdom literature, and and uh so you've got Psalms, uh Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Song of Solomon. Those books were written at the height of the kingdom, right? So so David, well, you know, uh when we think of David, we think of Psalms. When we think of Solomon, we think of Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Song of Solomon. Uh and so, so you know, that's kind of as good as it gets in Old Testament times. Uh, and then uh as we head into first and second kings and we are evaluating the kings as we've been talking about going through Israel's history, the failure of the judges, the priests, the pro the kings, and now the prophets, as we're as we're heading into the to the kings, the prophets start to show up, and the pre-exilic prophets are saying, you know, King, you better sort this out, or you know, you're gonna get judged. Well, as we talked about uh a couple weeks ago, there are two prophets that are right there at the end of the uh, you know, right before the Babylonians come, it's Habakkuk and Jeremiah. And they're saying, um, here they come, right? Well, now they've come. Uh King Nebuchadnezzar uh is uh coming in three waves in 605, 597, and 586 BC. Uh and in the first uh invasion that Nebuchadnezzar uh so King Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, comes and invades Jerusalem, he hauls off Daniel and his three friends. Uh and so we're we'll talk about that in the book of Daniel. In the second uh wave, in the second uh time that that Nebuchadnezzar returns, uh there's rebellion in Jerusalem. They're uh they're rebelling against Babylonian rule, and so he comes and he hauls off more, and Ezekiel is hauled off in that uh in that wave. The third wave, uh they rebel again, and Nebuchadnezzar says, enough of this. I'm wiping the place off the mat. Right. Uh and so and and so that's uh you know, that's kind of the end of Israel, uh Jerusalem, uh at least for a time being, uh, until the return. And that's what we're gonna talk about uh next week. We're gonna talk about the return. But during this time of exile, during the time when Israel's hauled off into captivity, the Jews are hauled off into captivity, we have two books written, Ezekiel uh and Daniel. They're both written in exile, and um and they're talking about, you know, uh the okay, now what do we do? Right? So the pre-exotic prophets are saying, you're gonna get it. Right. If you don't shape up, you know, the Lord's gonna bring judgment upon you, you're gonna get it. Um well now they've already had their spanking, yeah, right, and they're sitting there crying. Right. Right. Okay, now what do you do? All right, suck it up, right? Recognize what's happened, recognize you're under the discipline of the Lord, yeah, repent, right, return to the Lord, and he will restore you from captivity. Right. So it's not anything new, it's the same old, you know, Deuteronomy chapter 30, Deuteronomy 28, that you've been judged. Yeah, you need to repent. Yeah. Uh, and as we talked about a couple weeks ago, uh, the book of Jeremiah 29, 1 through 10, uh, you've got uh 70 years. So Israel has been told, uh Judah has been told that for 70 years you're going to be in exile. And so buckle up. And so off they go for 70 years. And

Daniel’s 70 Years And 70 Sevens

Dr. David Klingler 5:06

so uh, so the book of Daniel, really uh the the book of Daniel, uh in Daniel chapter nine, uh you have for the first nine uh chapters, you you have these stories, and we'll we'll work through these a little bit. But in chapter nine, uh now uh you fast forward. Daniel's now 70 years older. He's been hauled into exile. He's now 70 years older. Uh and he says, okay, uh he's uh this is in chapter nine, verse two of Daniel. He says, I was looking in the I was reading in the book of Jeremiah, right before my life verse. I know the plans I have for you, uh plans for a future and a hope.

SPEAKER_03 5:46

Yeah, well, not so much.

Dr. David Klingler 5:48

Yeah, it's gonna turn out not so much.

SPEAKER_03 5:50

Not so much indeed.

Dr. David Klingler 5:51

Uh he says, I I noticed there uh that it was that uh I observed in the number, uh in the book of the in the books, the number of the years which was revealed as the word of the Lord to Jeremiah the prophet for the completion of the desolations of Jerusalem, namely 70 years. And so uh the short version is Israel had taken the land back in the day, uh, but they had never observed the uh the Sabbaths. The seventh every seventh year was to be a year of rest, uh a Sabbath year, uh, and so uh seventy years the land was going to have rest, and so the Lord is gonna kick them out for 70 years. Yeah, and so uh so Daniel's hauled off, and now the 70 years is up, and he says, All right, uh 70 years. We going? Time to go back, right? That's right. Well, here's the problem you haven't repented. Uh oh. Uh and so in the back in Leviticus chapter 26, if the Lord judges you, Israel, and you don't repent, then he will pour out his judgment upon you sevenfold for your sin. Sevenfold for your sin, sevenfold for your sin. And so the Lord has judged them for seventy years, they didn't repent. And so the Lord is now decreeing seventy times seven. Ouch. Uh so uh in chapter nine, verse twenty-four, um uh the uh the angel comes, Gabriel the angel comes and he says, seventy sevens. It's translated weeks in the New American Standard. Seventy sevens have been decreed for your people and for your holy city, uh to finish transgression, to make an end to sin, to make atonement for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and prophecy and to anoint the most holy place. And so you're to know and to discern that from the issuing of the decree to restore and rebuild Jerusalem, which doesn't happen until 444 BC. And so now Daniel's long gone by the time this decree is going to be given. Um uh to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until Messiah the Prince, there will be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks. And so, so uh Daniel chapter nine, verses twenty-four through twenty seven really spells out kind of the coming time frame for what's gonna happen. You say, Well, what's supposed to happen to Daniel? Well, Daniel's gonna ask all kinds of questions. In fact, in chapter 12, he says, you know, uh, he's gonna say, uh, um, you know, he's trying to figure out what's gonna happen, and he's told, as for you, Daniel, conceal these words and seal up the book until the end of the time. Um uh, you know, for uh many will go back and forth and uh and uh well knowledge will increase. And uh, and so uh he asks, Lord, what will the outcome of these events? What's gonna happen? What what's the end? And he says, Daniel, uh go your way, uh, because these words are concealed and sealed up until the end of time. Uh at the seminary, we uh teach uh a course called Daniel Revelation. Uh so in Daniel, uh, you know, the the the books are sealed, the knowledge is sealed. Um you're not going to know until the end. And then the book of Revelation is do not seal the books for the time is near. Seal the books for the time is far, do not seal uh uh because the time is near. And so uh there's this explanation of this in time, uh, and then uh chapter 12, verse 13. But as for you, Daniel, go your way until the end, enter into your rest, and rise again for your allotted portion at the end of the age. And so the hope of Daniel is the hope of every believer throughout the whole story, it's the hope of resurrection, yeah. Right. And so I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, a future and a hope. Yeah. Uh if you understand that verse to be um your the the plans that the Lord has for the believer is resurrection from the dead and eternal life, you're you're on shape, right? Uh if you think that uh it's best life now and cash and a new car, and you know, uh that's what Satan's selling. That that's not uh that doesn't have anything to do with this. So

God’s Sovereignty Over Pagan Kings

Dr. David Klingler 10:06

the book of Daniel, let's go back to Daniel chapter one, chapter two. Why is this book written and why does Israel need to hear it? Well, basically, here's how the book goes Um Daniel goes into exile, he follows the word of the Lord. Um uh in the face of opposition, right? Um in chapter one, it's you know, um, I'm not gonna eat unclean food. And they say, Oh, yes, you are. No, I'm not. Well, um, then um, all right, we'll try this, but you know, we're suspicious. Well, uh, he follows the law, uh, and um uh and the uh the the leader of the of the servants uh recognizes the oh man this this this worked, right? Uh chapter two, uh he has a uh Nebuchadnezzar has this dream. Uh all the way through, uh and what happens repeatedly throughout this book is that the leaders of the nations that are ruling over, so Nebuchadnezzar, uh ruling over Israel, comes to the realization uh that the God of Daniel is the God of gods, the Lord of Lords. The God of Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego, their God is the God of gods, the Lord of Lords. You know that this is the uh the the story of the you know Nebuchadnezzar has a dream. Chapter 2, Daniel interprets the dream. These are the nations, the times, the people that are going to rule over Israel until Messiah comes. And so uh, you know, it's the head of gold, the chest of silver, and all that. And so Nebuchadnezzar says, Oh, I'm a head of gold. I'm gonna make me a statue of gold. And sounds nice. You everybody's gotta bow down to it since I'm the head of gold. And and of course, uh Daniel's friends won't bow down, and and so there's this this little uh uh statement here. Um, you're gonna bow down to it. They said, No, we're not. Our God is able to deliver us, and even if he doesn't know this, um, we're not bowing down. And the king says, Look, there's no one who can deliver you from my hand. Heat it up sevenfold, you know, heat it up seven times. They heat up the furnace, they're gonna throw them into the furnace, heat up the furnace seven times. Um, and sure enough, the Lord delivers them. It's actually interesting. There's this passage there in Isaiah chapter 43, um uh, you know, that the Lord is able to deliver you from the fire. And um uh, you know, and so the Lord in fact does deliver them. And Daniel's uh Daniel uh writes that Nebuchadnezzar comes to the realization uh that there is no God like the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. Uh and so why does Israel need to hear this? Well, uh because um Israel needs to hear that they're not in exile, they're not under um Babylonian rule because King Nebuchadnezzar is no strong so strong. They're under Babylonian rule uh because the Lord has them there, right? Yeah uh and so uh chapter uh we we get into to uh chapter uh chapter four, and um uh Nebuchadnezzar is is humiliated, uh, then he's restored. Uh and when he's restored, uh he says this, but at the end of the period, I Nebuchadnezzar raise my eyes toward heaven, and my reason returned to me, right? So he's his kingdom is removed from him, he's kind of crazy out in the wilderness, you know, and then he's restored to his kingdom, his senses returned to him. And I blessed uh the Most High and praised and honored him who lives forever. Interesting that his kingdom is removed, he's humbled, then he returns, and his senses are restored to him. You know, it sounds a lot like what's going to happen to Israel. And he comes to this conclusion. He says, This uh for his dominion, he says, I bless the most high and praised and honored him who lives forever, for his dominion is an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom endures from generation to generation. All the inhabitants of the earth are counted as nothing. He does according to his will in the host of heavens, and among the inhabitants of the earth, no one can ward off his hand or say to him, Why have you done this? And so uh and so he is the king of kings, the lord of lords, he's going to uh realize this. Belshazzar, the king that comes after him, the uh is going to realize this. Darius, all of these foreign kings are who are ruling over Israel during this uh this time of exile, they're realizing the God of Israel is the God of gods, the Lord of Lords. There's no one who can thwart off his plans, he does what he wants, he's the sovereign.

SPEAKER_02 15:13

Wow.

Dr. David Klingler 15:14

It is I who wound, I who heal, I who put to death, I who give life. There is no one who can deliver you from my hand, says the Lord, back in Deuteronomy chapter 32. And so Israel needs to hear this story. They need to hear uh uh Daniel's writings because they need to realize uh that the Lord God, the God of Israel, is the God of gods, the Lord of Lords. He does what he wants, he sets up the times and epochs, uh, and uh and all history is in his hand. Uh, and so they need to repent.

SPEAKER_02 15:47

Wow.

Dr. David Klingler 15:48

Uh and of course they they don't, uh, but it's uh it's a great uh it is a great book. So that's that's the book of Daniel.

unknown 15:56

Yeah.

Ezekiel’s New Heart And New Spirit

Dr. David Klingler 15:57

Uh the book of Ezekiel, uh, there are um a couple passages, of course, Ezekiel's a gigantic book, and really some neat stuff uh in Ezekiel. But one passage in particular that uh we want to look to uh is this is found in Ezekiel uh chapter 36. In Ezekiel chapter 36. Um the story has been told. Moses has already said back in the law what's gonna happen. Israel's gonna reject the Lord, they're going to be expelled from the land.

unknown 16:29

Right.

Dr. David Klingler 16:29

When they repent, the Lord will relent, he will restore them from captivity, and he will have compassion upon them. Right? So this is in Deuteronomy chapter 30. Uh, and uh in Jeremiah is going to write about this time of restoration. Ezekiel is gonna write about this time of restoration. All of the prophets, for the most part, are going to write about the time of restoration. So when you're reading uh Ezekiel uh in much the same way as the pre-exilic prophets, they're going to write, you're gonna get judged.

SPEAKER_03 16:59

Right.

Dr. David Klingler 16:59

Now that you're judged, now what do you do? Well, uh, you you know uh you trust in the Lord for him to restore you, and this is what it will look like when he restores you. And so uh in chapter 36, we'll pick it up in verse 22. Therefore, say to the house of Israel, um, thus says the Lord God. This this whole section really, or this this passage begins in chapter 3036, uh, back in uh verse uh uh I don't know, um verse eight. Uh you know, uh Ezekiel is told to prophesy to the land of Israel, the land of Israel will bear fruit, the land of Israel will uh men will be gotten upon them again, my people Israel will come. And so the Lord is prophesying through Ezekiel to the actual mountains, land of Israel. Wow, my people are coming.

SPEAKER_02 17:52

Yeah.

Dr. David Klingler 17:52

Hold on. That's right. Right? And so uh and so that's uh, you know, this whole passage down through here, and we pick it up in verse 22. And now say to the house of Israel, thus says the Lord God, it is not for your sake, O house of Israel, that I'm about to act, but for my holy name, which you have profaned among the nations where you went. They went, uh, they continued in their rebellion, uh, and uh they profaned the name of the Lord among the nations where they went. I will vindicate the holiness of my great name, which has been profaned among the nations, which you have profaned in their midst, then the nations will know that I am the Lord, declares the Lord, when I prove myself holy among you in their sight. And so the nations will know that the the Lord is the Lord God of Israel, when Israel repents and he restores them. For I will take you from the nations, I will gather you from all the lands, I will bring you back into your own land, I will sprinkle you with water and make you clean, I will cleanse you from all of your filthiness and from all your idols. Moreover, I will give you a new heart and a new spirit. I will remove your heart of stone from your flesh, and I will give you a heart of flesh, and I will put my spirit within you, and I will cause you to walk in my statutes, and you will be careful to keep all my ordinances. So that character of God revealed in the Old Testament, the character of God revealed in the law, through the ministry of the Spirit, the law failed to do it. The law never caused Israel to walk according to the word of the Lord, but the Spirit will do it. So where the law failed, the Spirit will do it.

SPEAKER_03 19:34

Right. And this is I mean, this is straight out of Deuteronomy. Circumcise your hearts, you know. Deuteronomy 30, right?

Dr. David Klingler 19:40

It's just explaining how this is going to happen. And you will live in the land that I gave your forefathers, so you will be my people, and I will be your God. In Hosea, uh, this goes back to a pre-exilic prophet. Um uh Hosea is told to go marry Gomer, uh, the harlot, because Israel has played the harlot and have children with this harlot. Uh, and the first one uh is uh named God S. Uh and the second child, son, is uh is born named Lo Ami, not my people, for they are not my people, and I am not their God. Um the third is Lo Rachamah, no compassion. It's a daughter, for I will have no compassion upon my people. Uh but when their time of exile is completed, when the time of judgment is completed, then he will have compassion upon them, and he will call those who are lo Ami, not my people, Ami, my people. And so here it is again, saying the same thing over and over and over. So you will be my people, and I will be your God. Moreover, I will save you from all of your uncleanliness, and I call I will call for the grain, all of the uh will multiply it. Uh there there won't be any more famine in the land. I will multiply the fruit of the tree, the produce of the field, and you not receive again the disgrace of famine among the nations. Then you will remember your wicked ways and your deeds which are not good, and you will loathe yourself, you will hate yourself in your own sight for your iniquities and your abominations. I'm not doing this for your sake, declares the Lord. Let it be known, be ashamed and confounded for your ways, O house of Israel. Thus says the Lord God, on that day I will cleanse you from all of your iniquities, I will cause your cities to be inhabited, your waste places to be rebuilt, the desolate land, the land of Israel, will be cultivated again instead of being a desolation in the sight of everyone who passes by. And then they will say, This desolate land has become like the Garden of Eden, and the waste and desolate and ruined cities, fortified and inhabited again. Then the nations who are left round about will know that I am the Lord, who has rebuilt the places, planted the desolate, I the Lord have spoken, and I will do it. Mm. Thus says the Lord God. Uh this also I will let the house of Israel ask me to do and uh for them, and I and I will do it. I will increase their men like their flock, uh the flock of their sacrifices, the flock of Jerusalem, uh during their appointed feasts. So the wheat waste places, the waste cities will be filled with flocks of men. Then you will know that I am the Lord. How many times does it say, I am the Lord, I will do it, not for your sake, I will do it. And so the Lord is going to vindicate uh the holiness of his great name. There's actually back uh in chapter 36, earlier in the chapter, verse 12, says, um let's read verses eight through twelve. But for you, O mountains of Israel, you will bring forth branches and bear fruit for my people, for they will soon come. For behold, I am for you, talking to the Israel, the land of Israel, the mountains of Israel. Uh I will return to you, and you will be cultivated and sown. I will multiply men on you, the house of Israel, all of it. The cities will be inhabited, the waste places will be rebuilt, I will multiply on you man and beast, and they will increase and be fruitful, and I will cause you to be inhabited as you were formerly, and I will treat you better than you were at first. Thus you will know that I am the Lord. So even the mountains of Israel, the land of Israel, will know that the Lord is the Lord because he's going to restore uh the people. Wow. Verse 12 says, I will cause my people Israel, all of it to walk upon you and to possess you, so that you become an inheritance, and never again be bereft uh from them of children. Uh this is an interesting one. Uh it's translated into the Septuagint. I will cause my people Israel to be begotten upon you. Um, unless you are begotten again, you will not see the kingdom. Jesus talking to Nicodemus. Yeah, yeah. Uh sprinkled with water made clean, new heart, new spirit. I will cause you to be begotten again, not just born from above, yeah, born of spirit, but raised from the dead, resurrected into the land. Uh and of course, so that's church 36.

Dry Bones Hope And Resurrection

Dr. David Klingler 24:14

37 is dry bones, right? And so the bones stand up, the flesh returns to them, uh, but there's no life. Uh and so Ezekiel was told, prophesy to the spirit, and the spirit will return and give life to this uh this body. And so it's all coming together in chapter 36 and chapter 37, which is looking towards the restoration of Israel, resurrection, eternal life.

SPEAKER_02 24:39

Yeah.

Dr. David Klingler 24:39

Uh and so Israel's hope is a future hope. That Jeremiah 29, 11 is actually a really great verse if you understand the context of it. I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, to give you a future and a hope. And that future and a hope has been resurrection from the dead. It's always been resurrection from the dead from the very beginning of the story till the very end of the story. The believer has the same hope.

SPEAKER_02 25:03

Yeah.

Dr. David Klingler 25:04

Uh but uh resurrection will not happen until Israel repents. Resurrection will not happen until the Christ returns. And so we're looking for the restoration of Israel, uh, the faith of Israel, and the return of the Christ. All of it's going to come together. And so the exilic prophets, Israel has been judged, they're in exile. And so Ezekiel and Daniel, they say, okay, now what? Uh Daniel, uh, the message of Daniel is uh you're here because the Lord's got you here, so you need to repent.

SPEAKER_02 25:35

Right.

Dr. David Klingler 25:36

Uh Ezekiel's message is uh yeah, you are here because the Lord got you here, but here's what's going to happen. And so there's a lot of future hope, and this is what it's going to look like in the future. And so a lot of Ezekiel is forward looking to the the restoration of Israel and to the end times, to the to the millennial kingdom.

SPEAKER_03 25:57

Yeah, even those last chapters are this temple and the millennial age, the kingdom of Christ. Yeah. Yep. That's

What Comes Next In The Story

SPEAKER_03 26:04

good.

Dr. David Klingler 26:04

So next week we're going to uh look towards the end of the 70 years. So Israel is going to be kicked out of the land for 70 years. Isaiah, uh back in Isaiah, Isaiah is told that you're going to go, but a remnant will return. Uh well, the remnant is going to return. Not all of Israel is going to return back to the land. In fact, a very small number is going to return back to the land. They're going to rebuild the temple and rebuild the walls.

SPEAKER_02 26:30

Yeah.

Dr. David Klingler 26:31

Uh and really rebuild the temple on the walls so that Messiah can come, they can reject him and tear him back down. Uh so uh next uh week we're gonna uh we're gonna look at uh uh uh uh a few books uh in particular, uh Ezra, Nehemiah, and Esther. Uh and these are you know kind of the the the the story books of the return. Yeah uh and then uh the uh the following week we're gonna look at uh at the post-exilic prophets. We're gonna look at Haggai, Zachariah, Malachi. Uh and what we're gonna find in these next two weeks, uh and we're gonna look at five books in two weeks, which is we're slowing down a little bit, um, is that uh in the return, nothing's changed. Uh still the same people, still the same problems. Uh and uh and so what do we do now? Uh so that's the next two weeks. The third week, we're gonna look at intertestamental period. What what happens in between Malachi and Matthew? What happens in between uh Israel's return to the land? There's roughly 400 years where uh something's happening, but it's not uh in our Bibles. Right. Uh and so we'll talk about what's happening during that time. So that's what's coming.

SPEAKER_02 27:42

Okay.

Dr. David Klingler 27:42

Uh but uh but anyway, so so the exilic prophets, we have pre-exilic, exilic, post-exilic, Ezekiel, Daniel, exilic prophets, they're they're they're they're the two of the major prophets, right? Um, but they're exilic prophets.

God’s Faithfulness When We Fail

SPEAKER_03 27:59

Yeah, and and I was I was kind of reflecting as we were talking and realizing that there's not a whole lot in terms of who God is, we're not learning anything new. This is just it's a playing out of this covenant relationship, the curses, and then the future promise to bless them and keep keep his promises to them. Yes. Uh, but what we are kind of seeing that's I wouldn't maybe not say new, is we're watching who he says he is play out. And so you're learning about what it means when God says he's loyal or merciful or compassionate, or he's gonna keep his promises. So now we're beginning to get a bigger, fuller picture of who he is, how he acts.

Dr. David Klingler 28:42

Yeah, Paul, when Paul says something like he's faithful when we are faithless because he cannot deny himself. That's Ezekiel, right? That's the Lord is going to keep his promises because he's the Lord and He keeps promises. Right. That's even when you don't, he does. Yeah, right. Yeah, uh, and so yeah, the character of God uh is uh being stamped in history. You're you're you're seeing this play out. That's cool. Uh and it is just uh non-negotiable. He will do it, yeah, says the Lord. And I have the authority to do it, says the Lord, and I'm going to do it. Yeah, not because of you, but because of me. I'm going to vindicate the holiness of my great name. And so awesome. Uh, you know, and it's just an encouragement to us that that we we think uh uh you're your your hope is not in yourself, your your future is not in yourself, your deliverance is not in yourself, uh, but you've got a God who is faithful, even when we're faithless. So that's uh that's that's a good encouragement. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 29:39

Well, I won't add anything to that at the end. Let's leave our listeners with that. Um, keep tuning in as we continue to walk through the Bible. Um, and uh yeah, we'll we'll continue learning together.
