“…In Ezekiel scholarship it is widely accepted that Ezekiel's approach toward Jehoiachin was positive and many scholars pointed especially to Ezek 17 (where Zedekiah is more severely criticized than Jehoiachin) and to the fact that the book is dated according to Jehoiachin's deportation to Babylonia, as indications of Ezekiel's acknowledgement of Jehoiachin as the legitimate king. 41 How-ever, from Ezek 19 we may learn about specific personal accusations against him which depict him as worse than some of his fellow kings, if not the worst: he shed blood, multiplied widows and ruined the land. His deportation to Babylonia is not temporal and he was taken there not to return.…”

This article analyzes Ezekiel 19, arguing for its unity and for a date of composition prior to the fall of Jerusalem. It evaluates the identities of the figures mentioned in the text and proposes that the murderous lion depicted in verses 5–9 is an image of no other than Jehoiachin. These findings explain the prophet’s decision to switch between the lion's image and the vine’s image in the middle of the prophecy, and they also contribute to the scholarly discussion regarding Ezekiel’s approach toward the exiled king.

The literary genre of Eze 17 -word of a prophet or a sage?Streszczenie. Znaczącą rolę przy odkrywaniu orędzia tekstów biblijnych odgrywają gatunki literackie, w których zostały spisane. W 17 rozdziale Księgi Ezechiela spotykamy się z terminem māšāl, który wskazuje na przysłowie, przypowieść czy alegorię i odsyła czytelnika do tekstów wywodzących się z tradycji mądrościowej obecnych w Piśmie Świętym. Praca została poświęcona przywołaniu podstawowych gatunków literackich określanych mianem māšāl, aby na tym tle podjąć próbę zdefiniowania gatunku literackiego Ez 17 oraz odpowiedzieć na pytanie, czy omawiany tekst z Księgi Ezechiela zawiera wypowiedź prorocką czy mądrościową. W celu przybliżenia przesłania Ez 17 przedstawiono wewnętrzną dynamikę całego rozdziału oraz zasygnalizowano kontekst historyczny jego powstania.Abstract. In the 17th chapter of the Book of Ezekiel we meet the word "māšāl", which indicates a proverb, a parable or an allegory, and refers the reader to the texts derived from the wisdom tradition present in the Scriptures. This paper recalls the basic literary genres known as māšāl, it is also an attempt to define the genre of Eze 17. The author answers the question whether the present text of the Book of Ezekiel contains a prophetic word or a word of wisdom. To show the message of Ezekiel 17 the author reveals the internal dynamics of the whole chapter and evokes the historical context of writing Eze 17.
