The New Covenant In Ezekiel David H J Gay

Or: 'Ezekiel for Believers in the Gospel Age'. To most believers, Ezekiel is a closed - not to say, impenetrable - book; especially chapters 40 to 48. What does it all mean for us today? Anything? Ezekiel, a prophet in the days of Judah's captivity, spoke of their restoration and the rebuilding of the temple at Jerusalem. At the appointed time, Judah did return, and the temple was rebuilt. But since that restoration in no way exhausted Ezekiel's majestic message of hope, some expect its fulfilment in a millennial Jewish kingdom to be set up after Christ's return. But Christ offered one effectual sacrifice for sin forever; it is unthinkable, therefore, that sacrifices for sin will be offered once again by levitical priests. So, what was Ezekiel speaking of? As with many others, David Gay, linking Ezekiel with Jeremiah and Hebrews, looking for Christ in all the Scriptures, argues that Ezekiel was predicting the new covenant inaugurated by Christ, leading to its final consummation in glory. And he has published this booklet hoping that it might lead many believers into a fuller enjoyment of the glories which are theirs in the new covenant in Christ.
