📚 Historical Context

Ezekiel was a prophet among the Jewish exiles in Babylon during the 6th century BC, delivering messages from God about the impending destruction of Jerusalem due to the people's unfaithfulness. This verse is part of a broader prophecy warning Judah of divine judgment for their idolatry, moral corruption, and social injustices, which had provoked God's anger and led to the Babylonian conquest. God is speaking through Ezekiel to emphasize that such consequences were inevitable for their persistent rebellion.
