Ezekiel 17:14

That the kingdom might be base, that it might not lift itself up, but that by keeping of his covenant it might stand.

Cross-reference

Ezekiel 17:6 depicts the low vine resulting from the humbling policy described in Ezekiel 17:14 – a direct allegorical link.

Ezekiel 29:15 declares Egypt will be the basest kingdom — directly echoing the 'brought low' language of 17:14.

Ezekiel 26:7 Historical context

Ezekiel 26:7 also features Nebuchadnezzar as God's instrument of judgment, here against Tyre — same king, different target.

Ezekiel 29:14 describes Egypt becoming a lowly kingdom, mirroring the 'brought low' goal for Judah in Ezekiel 17:14.

Jeremiah 27:12-17 directly commands Zedekiah to submit to Babylon to live — exactly the covenant keeping Ezekiel 17:14 prescribes for the kingdom to stand.

Jeremiah 38:17 promises survival if Zedekiah surrenders to Babylon — the same condition Ezekiel 17:14 gives for the kingdom to stand.

2 Kings 24:14 Historical context

2 Kings 24:14 records the deportation of Jerusalem — the opposite of the standing promised in Ezekiel 17:14, showing the result of failing to remain humble.
