⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

No more fake prophets with pretty lies, only truth from now on.

📚 Historical Context

During the Babylonian exile in the 6th century BC, the prophet Ezekiel was speaking to the Israelites who had been taken captive, warning them against false visions and divinations that promised false hope of an immediate return to their homeland. These deceptive prophecies were widespread among the exiles, as some leaders tried to comfort the people with flattering words that contradicted God's true message of judgment and future restoration. Through this verse, God declares that such misleading practices will end, emphasizing the trustworthiness of His authentic revelations.
