Exegesis

The clause viyadatem ki-ani YHWH {וִידַעְתֶּם כִּי־אֲנִי יְהוָה | wî-daʿ-tem kî-ʾă-nî Yə-hō-wāh} ‘and you shall know that I am the LORD’ serves as a climactic self-revelation, and the parallel infinitive clause besumi et-pnai bahem {בְּשׂוּמִי אֶת־פָּנַי בָּהֶם | bə-śû-mî ʾet-pā-nây bā-hem} ‘when I set my face against them’ reinforces divine determination.

In contextEzekiel 15:7

And I will set my face against them; from the fire they have come out, but the fire will devour them; and you shall know that I am the LORD when I set my face against them.
