Ezekiel 38:14
"Sheba, Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all its young lions, will ask you, ‘Have you come to take the plunder? Have you assembled your company to take the prey, to carry away silver and gold, to take away livestock and goods, to take great plunder?’”’"
Key Reflection
In Ezekiel 38:14, these nations represent foreign forces that will question Israel's motives for their invasion. The inquiry suggests a moral challenge, implying that the invaders will be seen as greedy and selfish, seeking wealth and power at others' expense rather than genuine assistance or friendship.
