== In popular culture == {{For|allusions to the prophet himself|Ezekiel#In popular culture}} β’ The angelic creatures and accompanying wheels seen by Ezekiel in Chapter 1 are referred to by the [[spirituals|spiritual song]] ''[[Ezekiel Saw the Wheel]]''. In the ''[[Command & Conquer]]'' video game series, the Nod Stealth Tank is sometimes referred to as the "Ezekiel Wheel", referring to the same passage. β’ The imagery in Ezekiel 37:1β14 of the Valley of Dry Bones, which Ezekiel prophesies will be resurrected, is referred to in the 1928 [[spirituals|spiritual song]] "[[Dem Dry Bones]]", the folk song [[Dry Bones (folk song)|Dry Bones]] and the song ''Black Cowboys'' by Bruce Springsteen on his 2005 album [[Devils & Dust]]. β’ A heavily modified version of one passage of the book appears in the [[Sonny Chiba]] movie ''[[Karate Kiba]]'' (''The Bodyguard''; 1976), where it is both shown as a scrolling text and read by an offscreen narrator and claimed to be Ezekiel 25:17.{{sfn|Thomas|2003|loc=pp. 61β62: Thomas notes that instead of "the Lord", this version reads "... and they shall know that I am Chiba the Bodyguard ..."}}{{sfn|Conard|2006|loc=p. 134: Conard claims that the text originates from the film ''Bodigaado Kiba'' (''Bodyguard Kiba'' or ''The Bodyguard''; 1973) and that the end phrase there is "And you will know my name is Chiba the Bodyguard ..."}} [[Quentin Tarantino]] lifted this version almost verbatim for a speech by a character in his movie ''[[Pulp Fiction]]''.
