Commentary on Ezekiel 21:5
"That all flesh may know that I the LORD have drawn forth my sword out of his sheath: it shall not return any more." The recognition formula appears with emphasis—"all flesh" (kol-basar, כָּל־בָּשָׂר) will know Yahweh drew the sword. Judgment serves pedagogical purposes—teaching divine reality, sovereignty, and justice. "It shall not return any more" (lo tashuv od, לֹא תָשׁוּב עוֹד) indicates irrevocable commitment to complete the judgment—no last-minute reversal occurs. The finality creates urgency for repentance before the sword strikes.
