# General Information: Yahweh speaks to Ezekiel about the people of Israel. # I will set my face against them "I will be against them" or "I will oppose them" # set my face against them "stare angrily at them" # know that I am Yahweh "understand that I am Yahweh, the one true God". Yahweh is implying that they will know that he is the one true God who has supreme authority and power. See Ezekiel 6:7. # Though they come out from the fire, yet the fire will consume them Yahweh speaks of the punishment that he will afflict upon the people as if it were a fire that burns them. # the fire will consume them "the fire will destroy them"
