What Does Ezekiel 13:21 Mean?
Just as God tears away the pillows, He will also destroy the kerchiefs—every tool of their deceptive trade. This complete destruction of their apparatus removes all means by which they prey on the people.
The liberation of God's people is made final: 'they shall be no more in your hand to be hunted.' The prophetesses lose all power and influence. The recognition 'ye shall know that I am the LORD' comes when they witness the loss of their destructive authority.
