‏ Ezekiel 29:21

v. 21: God also speaks of hope for Israel. When Nebuchadnezzar is at the height of his power, Israel is at its lowest. But God says, in that day the horn of the house of Israel shall bud forth (Ezekiel 29:21 a). This means Israel will begin to recover and receive honor, especially through the success of their leaders, like Daniel and his friends in Babylon (Daniel 2:49; Daniel 1:3 b). Jehoiachin, king of Judah, is also later released and honored (Jeremiah 52:31–32 c). God also promises to give Ezekiel more freedom to speak, showing that God’s favor is returning to His people. When God’s servants are encouraged and respected, it is a sign of blessing for the whole community.
