Context of Ezekiel 20:36
34And I will bring you out from the people, and will gather you out of the countries in which ye are scattered, with a mighty hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with fury poured out. 35And I will bring you into the wilderness of the people, and there will I enter into judgment with you face to face.
