Ezekiel 5-7

I doubt that Ezekiel enjoyed sharing the message of punishment that God revealed to him. As a priest he must have been appalled when God described the punishment being prepared for Jerusalem. He may have gasped when God described the suffering about to be unleashed inside the city walls. How many people was Ezekiel able to name that he knew he would never again see? And what about going home? Would Ezekiel die in the land of exile? Hadn't God promised to restore Israel when he spoke through Isaiah? Though this passage doesn't reveal any of these question from the prophet they must have at least entered his mind.
It took me about 12 minutes to read this passage.
