Chapter 11: Ezekiel is taken by the spirit to the east gate of the
temple, where the glory of the Lord stopped before totally
abandoning the sanctuary. There he finds 25 men. Two of them are
named, but we do not know anything specific about them. They give
bad advice to the city - Ezekiel had said it is a smaller evil to
not resist Nebuchadnezzar. But the vision takes their comparison
of feeling safe within the walls, after the invasion of 597,and
uses it to say: You have multiplied the slain in the city. God
said they have feared the sword- and it will come upon them, for
they have been a rebellious house.

God adds: He has taken them far away from their city. But the time
will come when He will bring them back Then they will remove all
detestable things from there. Then the vision of God in His
chariot leaves. The spirit lifted Ezekiel and put him down among
the exiles. He told them all that he had seen and heard.
