This study makes a contribution to the understanding of Old Testament
prophetic ministry by comparing selected texts from Jeremiah and Ezekiel
relating to the call of each prophet, the images of assayer, potter and
watchman, their relationships with the temple and their assessments of
deviant prophets. The styles of communication of the two prophets are
strikingly different. Interpretive clues regarding the reasons for these
differences are found in the settings of each book. While Jeremiah and his
people are still in the land with the temple present, Yahweh is perceived
as close, and the communication between Yahweh, prophet and people is
characterised by intimate dialogue. In Ezekiel’s context, far from the
temple and their land, Yahweh is presumed to be distant, and communication
between Yahweh, Ezekiel and the people employs more visual content.
Comparing two such significantly different prophets gives a range of
fruitful insights into the relationship between prophetic ministry and
local context.
