Our episode begins with a lament for the princes of Israel, who are compared to lions that grow up to devour people, and are therefore captured and taken away. Some of the elders of Israel gather around Ezekiel to inquire of the Lord, but God denies them and recounts the history of Israel’s rebellion and idolatry. Time and again, the Lord would have been justified in exhausting His wrath against Israel, but over and over He relents from disaster so that His name won’t be profaned among the nations. The Lord will not answer them, for as they seek Him they also seek after idols, even sacrificing their children to false gods.
