Verses 27-29
Third, when God broke the yoke that held His people in captivity and freed them from their oppressors they would know that He is Yahweh (Ezekiel 34:27 b).
Fourth, the Israelites would live in complete security. They would no longer be a prey to the nations or to the beasts of the earth that previously devoured them (cf. Isaiah 11:6-9). The beasts may be a figure for the Gentile nations that sought to devour Israel. The Israelites would live without fear of molestation. God would provide for them a place where they could put down roots, a place that would become famous. Famines and the insults of the other nations would cease forever. There are 17 "I wills" in Ezekiel 34:11-29 indicating Yahweh’s commitment to be involved in the lives and destinies of His people personally.
