Ahora tú, hijo de hombre, toma un cuchillo afilado, como navaja de barbero, y aféitate todo el cabello y la barba. Luego consigue una balanza para pesarlo y divide el cabello en porciones.

📚 Contexto Histórico
Ezekiel was a prophet living in exile among the Jewish people in Babylon around 593-571 BC, during the time when Jerusalem faced imminent destruction due to widespread idolatry and disobedience to God's laws. In this verse, God instructs Ezekiel to perform a symbolic act of shaving his head and beard with a razor and then weighing and dividing the hair, which represented the severe judgment, scattering, and measured punishment that would befall the people of Judah. This dramatic gesture was a common prophetic tool in ancient Israel to visually communicate God's warnings to a rebellious nation.
