Ezekiel 21:26 — KJV
Diadem. Heb. misnepheth, translated “diadem” only here. Elsewhere (Ex. 28:4, 37, 39; 29:6; 39:28, 31; Lev. 8:9; 16:4) it describes the “mitre” of the high priest. Misnepheth comes from the root, sanaph, “to wrap around,” hence properly means a turban. Here the kingly turban, a badge of royalty, is apparently referred to.
Not be the same. There would be a complete change in the existing state of things.
