The Use of Female Imagery in Ezekiel 16 Gerhard Schultze Dr. Deal RELS 301 06.11.12 The prophet Ezekiel was a Judean exile in Babylonia during the reign of the Babylonian king Nebuchadrezzar II (605-572). The only information known about Ezekiel is that which is found in his book. His prophetic career, which began around 593 BCE and ended in 571 BCE, has been determined by fifteen dates throughout his work that place it in the era encompassed by the exile of King Jehoiachin of Judah, his courtiers, and his administrative staff. The book is divided into three parts: chapters 1-24 and 33 involve prophecies of doom against Israel, 34-48 speak of the restoration of Jerusalem, and 25-32 act as a link between the two main divisions in the form of prophecies against Jerusalem’s neighbors. Throughout these divisions, there is superfluous use of female imagery as an extended metaphor in Ezekiel’s prophecies.

John Donne’s poem “The Sun Rising” is satirical in a number of different respects. The poem opens, for instance, with explicitly satirical words, as the speaker calls the sun itself a “Busy old fool” (1). Immediately, then, a satirical tone is established, and this tone continues for much of the rest of the work, as when the speaker next condemns the sun by calling it a “saucy pedantic wretch” (5). The speaker’s mockery then moves from the sun to various kinds of human beings, such as “Late schoolboys,” “sour prentices [that is, apprentices],” “court huntsmen,” and “country ants [that is, rural workers]” (6-8). First the sun is mocked, and then a wide social spectrum is satirized.
