The Old Testament book of Ezekiel is filled with visions and prophecies
the Lord revealed to His prophet. Although these revelations were given
to the people of Israel during their Babylonian captivity, many of them
are yet to be fulfilled. Ezekiel gives warnings of punishment for evil
practices and waywardness but also glorious promises to encourage those
who seek to honor the Lord even in the midst of trials. Bible students
are often puzzled by these difficult visions and fail to perceive
God's central messagethat He alone is Lord. Dr. Ralph Alexander
discusses each section of the prophecy in summary and then treats the
major themes, dealing with various questions and problems that arise.
