Ezekiel 5:1-4

The Symbolic Act of Shaving and Dividing Hair

Ezekiel 5:1-4
1
"Now you, human being, take a sharp sword; and use it like a barber's razor to shave your head and beard. Then weigh the hair on a balance-scale, and divide it up.
2
A third of it you are to burn in the city when the days of the siege are over. Take another third, and hit it with your sword all around the city. Scatter the last third to the wind, and I will pursue them with drawn sword.
3
Also take a few hairs and tie them up in the folds of your garment.
4
Again, of these take some; throw them in the fire, and burn them up; from there a fire will come out against the entire house of Isra'el.
