This study addresses a specific issue-whether Yahweh is intentional in regard to revealing himself to the nations. The inquiry begins by citing three scholars who posit that Israel has pride of place when it comes to divine revelation. This raises the question as to whether their claim is complete, leading to a thesis statement that points to: (1) four specific passages in Ezekiel that signal a broad pattern of divine disparagement followed by divine revelation to the nations, then to (2) three other Old Testament passages that reflect a similar pattern.The argument unfolds as follows: Chapter 1 opens with the question just mentioned-whether Yahweh prioritizes his people or the nations when it comes to his self-revelation, which leads to a presentation of the thesis statement. A review of related scholarly literature, identification of a scholarship gap on the topic at hand, and a discussion of further details bring this initial chapter to completion. Next, Chapter 2 examines four specific passages in Ezekiel: Chapter 20 (MT), 28:20-26; Chapter 36, and Chapters 38-39. Each of these passages contain certain lexemes, phrases, and themes that occur with a much higher frequency than are found in the rest of the book, signaling a likely authorial intention. As it turns out, the purpose behind this phenomenon appears to address the question raised in Chapter 1, as divine disparagement is present in each case. These phenomena all signal Yahweh's determination to reveal himself in response, thus indicating that divine revelation to the nations is more of a priority than is normally thought. Moving forward, in Chapter 3, an examination of three other passages-the Exodus Narrative (Exodus 3-14), the Ark Captivity Narrative (1 Samuel 5:1-6:12), and the Aramaic portion of Daniel (Daniel 2:4b-7:28)-shows that the same divine priority is present in these passages, as well. Further, these three passages indicate that Israel's God appears to be revealing himself with specific themes in mind. In essence, as he reveals himself, that revelation carries specific messages and emphases that appear to be a priority for Yahweh to convey to the nations. Finally, in Chapter 4, after synthesizing and summarizing the findings that have been discussed, this study highlights a similar divine priority as well as similar revelatory themes that appear in other passages in the Old Testament and on into the New Testament, as well. Care is taken to note the different nuances and expressions related to divine revelation as the study moves forward. In the end, this study shows that Yahweh is indeed intentional in regard to revealing himself to the nations.
