Welcome to my blog! My name is Brother Woody Brohm. I’m blessed to be married, the father of two wonderful daughters, and the grandfather of five incredible grandchildren. As the son of a pastor, I’ve had the joy of knowing Christ for most of my life. Though I haven’t pursued seminary or pastoral ministry as a vocation, I’ve been privileged to teach in churches and serve as a missionary at various times. My heart’s desire is to follow Jesus Christ faithfully, and I affirm the truth of salvation by grace alone. This blog is a reflection of my passion for studying Scripture and sharing the truths I’ve discovered. May it serve to encourage and equip you as we grow together in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
Ezekiel 31 tells Pharaoh to “consider Assyria,” a cedar that rose by God’s waters and fell for its pride. The parable trains rulers and households to keep low, give shade, and trust the Gardener who governs height and rain.
Ezekiel 30 announces a near “day of the Lord” over Egypt. Alliances collapse, idols fail, and God strengthens Babylon while breaking Pharaoh so nations learn His name.
Pharaoh claims the Nile and meets the Lord who owns it. Ezekiel 29 recounts forty years of desolation, a humbled Egypt, Babylon’s wages, and a horn raised for Israel.
Ezekiel 28 humbles a sea-throne that claimed divinity, sings a lament over corrupted glory, judges a violent neighbor, and promises Israel secure life in the land.
Ezekiel 27 turns Tyre into a splendid ship and then a wreck, teaching nations to grieve pride and to turn wealth into worship under God’s rule.
Tyre’s gloat over Jerusalem meets God’s waves of judgment. Ezekiel 26 turns a proud harbor into a bare rock to teach nations who truly rules the sea.
Ezekiel 25 turns outward from Jerusalem to four neighboring nations that mocked, taunted, and attacked. Each oracle delivers measured justice with a single aim: that all will know the Lord.
Ezekiel 24 names the day the siege begins and interprets it with a parable of a burning pot and a sign in the prophet’s own home. The chapter exposes stubborn impurity and prepares the way for cleansing and restored speech after judgment.
Ezekiel 23 uses a shocking sister-parable to expose covenant infidelity and its consequences. It also points toward hope: jealous love that ends lewdness and restores true worship.
Ezekiel 22 confronts Jerusalem as a “city of bloodshed,” exposing corruption from palace to pulpit and promising a furnace of refining judgment. The chapter calls communities back to truthful worship, just dealings, and courageous intercession.
Ezekiel 21 declares that the Lord Himself has unsheathed the sword against Jerusalem, exposing false hopes in sanctuary and scepter. Yet within judgment rises a promise: the crown will rest on the one to whom it truly belongs.
Ezekiel 20 reviews Israel’s story to explain God’s judgment and mercy “for the sake of my name.” It ends with a robust promise of regathering and accepted worship on His holy mountain, so that all will know He is the Lord.
Ezekiel 19 is a funeral song for Judah’s crowns. The prophet mourns lions that devoured the flock and a vine burned from within, so that no branch remains for a scepter. This lament teaches honest grief and calls communities to repent and hope in the God who uproots in justice and will, in His time, plant again.
Ezekiel 18 ends a fatalistic proverb and restores responsibility and hope. Through case studies and a closing plea, the Lord calls each person to turn from sin and live, promising that He delights in repentance and gives the new heart He commands.
Ezekiel 17 unpacks a parable of eagles and a vine to indict broken oaths and misplaced trust, then pivots to a promise: God will plant a tender sprig that becomes a sheltering cedar. The chapter calls for humble fidelity now and hope rooted in the Lord’s sure planting.
