The priest-prophet Ezekiel wrote his book as a high-stakes rhetorical effort to persuade his fellow exiles to sever all allegiance to the equivocation and disobedience of its recent past---or face national oblivion. Accordingly, he sets out to reconstitute Judah's very language, especially its perception of Yahweh at the center of its cultural identity. In order to dramatize the stark choice that faces Judah, Ezekiel weaves into his prophetic memoir two image-rich paradigms, one based on a metaphor of plural mountains, the other on a metaphor of a singular mountain. Into the first paradigm he "maps" pejorative entailments from its recent, fragmented past; into the second the integrating coherence of Yahweh's coming restoration. Functioning in his role as priest, Ezekiel invites the readers to make a sharp distinction between these alternative symbolic models. To do so, Ezekiel fills the rival paradigms with content borrowed from Israel's own rich stock of connotations, through a mental process linguists identify as conceptual blending.

520 $a The priest-prophet Ezekiel wrote his book as a high-stakes rhetorical effort to persuade his fellow exiles to sever all allegiance to the equivocation and disobedience of its recent past---or face national oblivion. Accordingly, he sets out to reconstitute Judah's very language, especially its perception of Yahweh at the center of its cultural identity. In order to dramatize the stark choice that faces Judah, Ezekiel weaves into his prophetic memoir two image-rich paradigms, one based on a metaphor of plural mountains, the other on a metaphor of a singular mountain. Into the first paradigm he "maps" pejorative entailments from its recent, fragmented past; into the second the integrating coherence of Yahweh's coming restoration. Functioning in his role as priest, Ezekiel invites the readers to make a sharp distinction between these alternative symbolic models. To do so, Ezekiel fills the rival paradigms with content borrowed from Israel's own rich stock of connotations, through a mental process linguists identify as conceptual blending.
520 $a Ezekiel sets up these two alternative patterns for understanding Israel's way with Yahweh in his first main section (chs. 1--24), beginning with a programmatic oracle in chapter 6. He continues to develop both paradigms by including mountain imagery in a wide variety of oracles and discourses, regularly adding content and implications as he moves through his prophetic narrative. At this point Ezekiel consistently connects plural mountains to the doom of judgment, the single mountain to the promise of restoration. In chapters 25--35, Ezekiel brings the two paradigms into closer proximity, engaging them in direct rhetorical battle. In the process Ezekiel methodically reverses each negative entailment collected in the plural paradigm, thereby neutralizing plural mountains as a symbolic threat to Yahweh's rule. Ezekiel completes this narrative resolution in chapters 36--37 by showing plural mountains---now stripped of their paradigmatic force---metaphorically absorbed and integrated into the singular paradigm. Ezekiel allows one final dramatic resurgence of the plural paradigm in his Gog episode before bringing his readers to his culminating destination, a vision in which Israel lives forever secure, restored upon a "very high mountain" with Yahweh at the center (chs. 40--48).
