{{For|allusions to the prophet himself|Ezekiel#In popular culture}}
•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.
•The imagery in Ezekiel 37:1–14 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]].
• In the movie [[Pulp Fiction]], the character Jules recites a fictional biblical passage just before executing someone. Although he claims that it is Ezekiel 25:17, the text is made of references from both the original passage and other sources <sup>[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulp_Fiction#Jules'_Bible_passage]</sup>.
"The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who in the name of charity and goodwill shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy My brothers. And you will know My name is the Lord when I lay My vengeance upon thee."
