Ezekiel 12-16

It took nearly 30 minutes to read through this passage. This was not an easy passage to read. It would have been a terrible series of lessons to be spoken to me. I am confident that I would not have received it well. The language that Ezekiel uses for God would be insulting if they were not true. But God's words are intended to covey the truth of what is happening. Israel needed to understand what they were doing to their relationship with God. God had poured out his love on this people and when they were grown and comfortable they rejected him. In hopes of waking them up, God turned His wrath against them. We know that it worked. But the pain to reach that point was terrible for Israel.
