Ezekiel Opener

Ezekiel

The theme section in this issue of Bible Study Magazine is about the life and mission of Ezekiel the prophet. The biblical book is full of descriptions of Ezekiel physically demonstrating hard lessons to the nation of Israel. Many are filled with sorrow and difficult imagery, but are centered around waking up the listener to repent and turn back to God.  I used a collage style to bring the imagery in the editorial pieces to convey the mishmash of ideas and concepts that Ezekiel proclaimed over the people that you can see below.

My favorite design was for the article "The Bitter Word, Sweet as Honey". Here's a snippet from the text: "Ezekiel is given a scroll covered front and back with words of lament (2:9–10). It is not enough for Ezekiel to simply read this message of woe; he must open his mouth and ingest it. Surprisingly, this bitter word is as sweet as honey on his tongue (3:3)."
