Moreover he said unto me, Son of man, behold, I will break the staff of bread in Jerusalem: and they shall eat bread by weight, and with care; and they shall drink water by measure, and with astonishment:
Entonces me dijo: 'Escucha, voy a cortar el suministro de comida de Jerusalén. La gente tendrá que racionar su pan, pesando cada pedazo con ansiedad. Medirán su agua cuidadosamente, impactados por lo poco que tienen.'
Dios anuncia que Jerusalén sufrirá una escasez tan severa que la gente tendrá que racionar cuidadosamente cada bocado de comida y cada gota de agua.
📚 Contexto Histórico
Ezekiel was a prophet living in exile in Babylon around the 6th century BC, delivering messages from God to the Israelites about the consequences of their persistent idolatry and rebellion against God's laws. In this verse, God warns of a severe famine in Jerusalem as part of the judgment during the Babylonian siege, where the "staff of bread" symbolizes basic sustenance being cut off, forcing people to measure out food and water in desperation. This prophecy was fulfilled in the destruction of Jerusalem in 586 BC, illustrating how God used historical events like sieges to enforce divine discipline on His people.
